Arboretum last week. Because of the way they hung from the branches it was difficult to get a composition I liked. Even though it was shady there were hot spots that could not be edited easily. . The fragrant flowers are borne on branching peduncles. Petals, are held within a green calyx which turns red as the fruits ripen. The fruits (drupes) are turqoise(left image) at first but turn to a blue black color (right image). Camera+ app, edited with PSE 11. For more information search for: Clerodendrum trichotomum var fargesii.
