In the post Beneath the Platycarya strobilacea Juglandaceae, I posted a photo of this tree.
A couple of days ago I had another look at the leaves. Those are pretty unusual leaves, are they not?
Then I stepped back to get a view of the tree from further back that in the earlier post.

Platycarea hmm, I’ll need to go look it up, but from its name, obviously a relative of The Walnut…

Funnily enough, with Wikipedia’s being first, this actually was the next entry… Serendipity at its finest, wouldn’t you say?
