🌰 Where do #almonds come from? From the prettiest red-leaved #tree with health benefits! 📝 Most commercial almonds come from the #Prunusdulcis tree, a close relative of #Peach Tree, native to the Middle East and South Asia. However, #TropicalAlmond (#Terminaliacatappa), also called Indian almond or Sea almond, produces a similar #nut in tropical regions. 🌳 The Tropical Almond tree puts on a spectacular fall display rarely seen in #evergreen tropical regions. As a #deciduoustree, it sheds its large, glossy #leaves in a burst of color - shifting from green to brilliant shades of red, orange, and especially bright mauve. This fiery transformation sets it apart from most #tropicaltrees. At the same time, the almond-like #fruits ripen, making this tree not only a visual showstopper but also a source of delicious, nutritious nuts. 🌰 Health benefits of Tropical Almond: ✅ Rich in omega-3 fatty acids - supports brain and heart health. ✅ High in protein and healthy fats – helps build and maintain muscle and energy. ✅ Strengthens bones and teeth – due to its calcium and phosphorus content. ✅ Improves eye health – thanks to antioxidants like vitamin E. ✅ Reduces inflammation – naturally anti-inflammatory. ✅ Supports liver and digestive health – traditional medicine uses the leaves for liver diseases, diarrhea, and dysentery. ✅ Used as an aphrodisiac – in some traditional systems. Tropical Almonds can be grown in the ground or containers and are tolerant of heat, drought, and salt, making them great for tropical and coastal #gardens. 🛒 Plant the Tropical Almond Tree with mauve fall color: toptropicals.com/store/item/… #Food_Forest #Remedies #Discover #Fun_Facts

Evergreen or Deciduous Tree? When most think of evergreens, they think of needle-leaved coniferous evergreens. such as the one shown, Douglas Fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). Remember that there are broadleaf evergreens, as well as some unusual conifers that are deciduous, shedding all their foliage in winter just like the deciduous broadleaf trees. Confused but interested? Our experts explain and provide examples, at the link.🌿 GrownByYou: Know Before You Grow.℠ grownbyyou.com/growing-trees… #tree #evergreentree #deciduoustree #evergreens #evergreenconifers #broadleafevergreens #deciduousconifers #gardenideas #plantingideas

Garden designers know that major trees require years if not decades to reach mature size, but have a trick to create nice-looking, temporary landscapes while they grow that you can use, too. They select and plant fast-growing, temporary trees as fillers to make good-looking temporary landscapes, filled with tall foliage. Meanwhile, the permanent trees—planted at the same time—slowly grow. Over time, the stand-in filler trees are cut and removed, and the major trees replace them as the designer intended—revealing the final landscape design. Some commonly planted species used as temporary fillers include alder, ash, birch, poplar, and willow.🌿 GrownByYou: We’re All About How.℠ grownbyyou.com/growing-trees… #GardeningX #landscape #landscaping #tree #deciduoustree #fillertrees #gardenideas #gardendesign #gardenplanning #landscapeplan #landscapearchitects
