Description
The is a photograph of the Brazilian Rain Tree (Pithecellobium tortum or Chloroleucon tortum) - endemic to Brazil. This tree has to be seen to be truly appreciated. It is absolutely fascinating. By far the coolest feature is the trunk, which has deep grooves. The leaves are also beautiful - delicate and weeping. The flowers are not often considered as showy as other tropical trees, but this particular arrangement caught my attention. I loved the way they alternated, zig-zagging up the branch, all pointing up in happy unison.
