Welcome to my world.

My blog is one place where I can be myself without worrying about my voice being too loud, my laugh too raucous or my ideas too weird.

Male or female ? #ThursdayTreeLove

Waiting for the Little Ones to come out of class gives me time to notice the trees in the leafy lane the school is situated in.

The other day I noticed an interesting tree trunk with peeling bark.

I asked one of the fathers if he knew what the name of the tree was. I was surprised when he told me that it was a Jackfruit tree.

“How come I’ve never seen any fruit?” I asked.

“Because it is a male tree.”

Did you know that jackfruit trees can be male?

  1. I am not sure I’ve ever seen a jackfruit tree but I have had the fruit as part of vegan “meat” preparations. Those preparations are delicious. We have the beautiful ginkgo tree, which has both male and female trees. Sometimes, when under stress, the male trees can change into female trees.

    1. Yes jackfruit does make an amazing substitute for meat and the tree shifts from male to female from time to time …
