Re: kaffir lily

i think those were unopened blooms, jim. but the tree, which has a very short bloom window, should be offering seeds by now. i'll try to go by there tomorrow after work and check it out.

Jim, that Bombax malarabicum you shot is surely one
remarkable tree; does it set seed ? In your close-up
shot, the flowers appear to be accompanied by spherical
brown (black in the upper right) spheres which might be
either unopened buds or seed pods. If it does set seed,
might I beg one from you ? I enjoy trying oddball plant
seeds and would like to see if they'd germinate and grow.
