Public "Thank You!" to (alex!) from (me!) sandra, tvgp

k, so i showed a picture of the tree from niles district park in fremont to 3 different very knowledgeable staff/administrators at alden lane nursery.    -not one knew it write away, the name of this fat trunk tree 

but, jim "thank you!"   -he gave it go..   did some research...

maybe a ficus nerifolia (?)...

and then alex handed me some paper work which had the name and some pictures, so..  

my winner is alex!    25,000 imaginary points for helping me identify the

common name:   Queensland Bottle Tree, 


and per Jim later...   AKA:  Australian Bottle Tree

and, David..    i think he's still researching...     got side-tracked by a customer...

but, i just love knowing the common name..     the botanical is:   brachychiton rupestris

and, i sure do hope one day, trees in public parks will all wear common name tags.    wouldnt that be fun.

and we picnicked under the shade of a california pepper tree.
