The Sandbox Tree - WTF fun facts
The seeds can be launched at 70 metres per second (160 mph)
“The hura tree protects its explosive fruits with a sap so toxic that it will raise great red welts if it touches human skin and even blind those who get it into their eyes. The macaws, however, are not put off. Long before the fruits are ripe, the birds rip them apart, pods, seeds and all, and then, after a meal that would have poisoned others, they fly to particular places on a river bank where they can gnaw out and swallow a special clay which detoxifies their meal.”That’s one pissed off dryad.

It’s not actually known if lemons were made by humans or if they were just natural hybrids of citrons and sour oranges. Apparently it’s super common for citrons to fertilize basically anything they’re near.

Everything about this post is going in so many directions at once
Just like the citrons 😘
Citrons are the Zeus of the plant world

“Cute” isn’t often a word used to describe plants but there really is no other word for these dolphin shaped succulent plants. This plant is called the senecio peregrinus and the longer the vines grow, the more they grow into looking similar to a dolphin jumping up out of the water.
