Oz Pods of the Kurrajong
$70.00 – $2,180.00
Brachychiton populneus, or commonly kurrajong, is a small- to medium-sized tree found naturally in Australia. We found it on a SoCal sidewalk.
Description
Brachychiton populneus — we wonder how many in its native Australia call it by that name. The kurrajong, or bottle tree, is a small- to medium-sized tree found naturally there.
It makes sense that it can be found, a thriving import, in semi-arid Southern California. In a tree-friendly neighborhood, we had paid it no heed — it didn’t stand out like a foreign invader — until, walking one day, these fascinating seed pods caught our eye. Any lower and they could’ve given us a black eye.
Photographer’s note: The tree was carrying no ID and was unfamiliar to me. But Google Images informs us this likely was a kurrajong — Brachychiton populneus, AKA bottle tree. (We’re using that, so we hope Google has it right.)
I just received my latest picture, let me tell you, the website doesn’t do these justice, it is absolutely gorgeous! If you are on the fence about ordering from this website, stop hesitating! This picture is a nice addition to my living room, no problem with shipping, it’s packed so well it could never become damaged. I highly recommend these items, my only problem is, which one do I order next?
