Guayaquil/Coconut_Plm_Tree.jpg





This is a Coconut Palm Tree.  Stand under it and you may get a king sized headache. a coconut can weigh up to 4 pounds!  Ouch!  In some parts of the world, I have seen the area under a coconut palm fenced off to prevent people from getting hit.

This strange and exotic tree is actually a bananna plant. 
The "thing" hanging down is a inflorescence, what ever that is!

There was also some strange but beautiful flora in the park.  I'll let you research the names.
