Peradeniya Botanical Gardens, Kandy, March 4, 2010

While the rest of you were enjoying the Philadelphia Flower Show, we were down in Kandy, Sri Lanka visiting a botanical garden that would rival Longwood Gardens.























Fifth photograph are not dead leaves on a tree but fruit bats hanging by the hundreds.

The seventh photograph is of the giant Java Fig Tree covering 1600 sq meters.

The globe blossom you see below is the Venezuela Rose Tree and further below is the canon ball tree
