This old Australian tea tree (Leptospermum
laevigatum), located in Palisades Park
in Santa Monica, California, is one of
the best features of the Park.
This banyan (Ficus benghalensis) can be found at the
southernmost end of Waikiki, away from the hotels and
hustle-bustle of the busy tourist traffic. A short walk
south of the hotel district, there is a beach park that can
only be described as royal, with its fantastic trees that
attract tree lovers from all over the world. When I was a
kid we would always eat lunch under these trees after
a hard morning of surfing. Even as a kid that was only
concerned with lunch, I was always in awe of those trees.
