Peruvian parasol (Cavanillesia hylogeiton)
Berba
Fruits of Garcinia intermedia. The tree may fruit after as little as two years. The fruits are smooth spheres about an inch in diameter with a thin yellow, orange, or red rind around a white pulp. They are edible and have an appealing sweet and sour taste. It is usually eaten out of hand, though it can be used for drinks, jams and jellies.
Brachychiton acerifolius
Brachychiton acerifolius, commonly known as the Illawarra Flame Tree, is a spectacular Australian native known for shedding its foliage in summer to produce a vibrant canopy of bright red, bell-shaped flowers. These vibrant blossoms are highly attractive to local pollinators, acting as an excellent foraging source for native bees as well as butterflies. It is highly valued globally as an ornamental feature tree. Good as a shade tree in larger landscapes. Ideal for parks and streetscapes. Can also be used in large gardens as a feature tree.
We will release a few seedlings in the next couple of months. ππ±π³

Wild mushrooms
Common during the rainy season. Since last month June plenty of edible and non-edible mushrooms popping up almost anywhere. It is generally a great sign indicating a rich, active soil full of beneficial fungi breaking down organic matter. The mushrooms are just the visible fruit of an underground network doing the hard work of recycling nutrients. ππππ
