Is it a Bottle?

Here's one I have a guess on, but no positive ID.

This is the whole tree

Hmmm...any seedpods? I'll guess Brachychiton populneus for the moment, but I'm not positive.

That was my guess, but I didn't notice seed pods when I was taking the pictures....but I also wasn't looking for them.

Maybe I'll have to check again.

I just went and checked through my photo collection and am now fairly positive that it is Brachychiton populneus. Here's a photo of the leaves from a tree in Israel. I also have pictures of the seedpods if you're interested, but no flowers.

Nick, here's a seedpod photo. You'd notice them if they were there. They're pretty prominent. The Brachychitons are a nice group of trees.


Keep these tree photos coming, I'm having fun with it!
