Yesterday's fig haul. Or at least part of it. Had to come in for another container. #figageddon #figs #ficus #fruit #syconium #moraceae #infructescence

Ostiolar bracts of a fig syconium. It's a squeeze, but this is the way in and out for the tiny wasps that do the pollinating. The ostiole is also where the volatiles that attract the wasps are released. #fig #Ficus #wasps #botany #Moraceae #fruit #entomology #Hymenoptera #nature

Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus). These are becoming quite common at grocery stores in the United States and I'm wondering whether they are imported from #Brazil, where the tree is highly invasive and the fruit is not particularly popular. I love it, plus it's good fun to watch other shoppers' faces when they see it in my cart. #Moraceae #botany #fruit #plants #InvasiveSpecies
