PENTASPODEN MOTLEYI

When looking at this grove of trees from the Anacardiaceae Family, it is not surprising to think that the center specimen is dead since the remaining ones around it are all doing well. But a drying or dying tree it is not.


In fact, the tree is sprouting a new coat of leaves that gradually turn red and green. Anyway, I love the architecture, form and look of this tree in a landscape.
