Ooooh, love that picture. Somewhere in Japan? Propping up the branches of weary old trees is something I associate with the Far East. And the building by the lake looks oriental.

Yes. I thought Japan or a botanical garden. Here in Texas we have live oak trees that live a 1,000 years or more. Those ancients have their branches propped up.

Ah, so it isn't an oriental thing. Thanks for the photo.

Japanese Pagoda Tree (Styphnolobium japonicum) in Kew Gardens, London, (1765 – present, despite its name, the origin of the species is China). Over the years many techniques have been used to prolong the life of this tree including the brick wall at its base.  It started to twist as it grew and no one knows why. There is a regular shaped specimen on the other side of the path.


Princess, would you like to see it light up and hum when I wave it about

It was planted in 1765? Amazing.

I wonder why the botanist who thought of the Latin name associated the tree with Japan.

Possibly the western botanist discovered it in Japan not knowing that an earlier botanist had already transported seeds from China to Japan.

I'm definitely growing senile. I was trying to remember what little I knew of East Asian history, when it struck me that I'd come across the expression "to shake the pagoda tree" many, many times. I even have a book of that name.  :facepalm:

 B. M. Croker. The Pagoda Tree.  London: Cassell, 1919.

In that usage, the pagoda tree represents untold riches, of the kind brought home to England by traders with India, Burma, and China. Mid- to late-18th century would be just about right. Come to think of it, if the Kew tree was brought to England as a sapling, it wouldn't have looked much like a pagoda. Maybe "Japanese Pagoda Tree" was some kind of botanical in-joke.

I feel you doggy.   Just had my first sip of coffee after a 9 HOUR very restful sleep.  Then why am I still yawning?

Waiting for M to get up, she wants to go to the local middle school track to run laps.  So, running in circles today. My knees like a track surface better than cement, so I'm okay with that.

And Good Morning KB
