Tropical trees


I had always heard that papaya trees came in male and female. In
the courtyard of my apartments there are two trees loaded
with fruit (above), and another (below) with no fruit
at all, but loaded with flowers.



I thought that this small mango tree was young until I
walked over and looked. It has an enormous,
gnarled old trunk, with a few young branches that
have popped up
