Plant A : Fabaceae family?

Pods - Leaves - Flowers

I have a major legume obsession myself, so I find all these photos quite stimulating.

One of the Senna's perhaps. Couldn't quite recognise the seed pod.

I'll try to get a closer shot of pods

Didn't I see this question yesterday along with the second plant referred to in this post but not pictured? What happened to that post?

==>>> hmmmm .. oh my ... lol

Agree with Senna.

Only in an intellectual way Ken lol ? But you do know what flowers are don't you?

Hey, I identified the second plant solo, but was unable to edit original post on mobile. Apologies floral_uk

All I see is plant A. There is no second plant? Or did you mean the tortured rhinoceros tree from the other thread??? Well?

Jay. There was another post which seems to have disappeared. There was a plant which looked vaguely like a yellow member of the Bignoniaceae.

What did you id it as Omniviridis? If there's a next time could you just add the new information rather than deleting? Then we all get to learn something. Or, as sometimes happens, point out an OP's incorrect id.

Thanks floral. Was it Tecoma stans lol.

It was Spathodea campanulata (African Tulip Tree)

Ha. The yellow version was one of my guesses to myself. Bignoniaceae.

Haha, floral_uk you are fast. Yeah, it's not the usual orange variety, but a yellow one which for some odd reason through me off for a minute.

This site is so odd, on mobile it will not let me edit my comments (threw not through) nor will it allow for me to type in box (I have to copy/paste from another place.

Only in an intellectual way Ken lol

==>>> good to know.. lol ... i was pretty sure.. but just checking ... lol ...

im sure all of us.. who hang around these forums feel the same way ... across a wide range of plants ...

it was just your word choice that amused me ...

ken

It was intentional, for your amusement. I have a harem of legumes. All this talk is making me want another bean. Maybe prairie turnip.

Jay, floral_uk, ken et al I have quite a few Fabaceae within my seed bank here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UCvIARjFBUFCPLlLmq3ww-QqrAAJL65G/view?usp=sharing

Alternatively, if any of you have seeds for items highlighted in purple or red on the first tab or any cones in red highlight on second tab I'd love to chat on a side note... Haha! :D Who is obsessed now?!

Omniviridis, I have to grow the species that can handle my climate. It is like heaven whenever I'm the arid southwest surrounded by desert flora like acacias and mesquite. The northern legumes that I grow are Acmispon americanum, Apios americanum, Amorpha canescens, fruticosa, nana, Astragalus canadensis, propinquus, Dalea, foliosa, purpurea, villosa, Desmodium canadense, glutinosa, Desmanthus illinoensis, Baptisia australis, Mimosa nuttallii, Lespedeza capitata, violacea, Lupinus perennis, Senna hebbacarpa, didymobotrya, obtusifolia, occidentalis, marilandica, Tephrosia virginiana, Thermopsis caroliniana. I still want Apios priceana, Amoroha nitens, ground plum and prairie turnip. My Fabaceae obsession now encompasses the milkworts Polygalaceae. They are so beautiful imo. I have seeds for P. senega. Those were the only seeds I could find. If I found incarnata I'd be on cloud 9 lol. I managed to pull off growing an Albizia tree several years ago up here in the north. I think the disease that was killing them down south finally made it up here. Zanthoxylum are sort of new to me too. I love the thorns, but many are thicket forming, so need to watch that.

Impressive garden! Yeah, I'm from NJ and lived in IN growing up as well, but I've been spoiled living in SoCal for the past six years. Haha. Anything that I want to grow is only dependant on the space that I have. (Which is small since I'm only 30 and living in apartments because housing will never be affordable out here). I'm going to delve into your list and see what items sound amazing. A funny one that I've collected recently was the Squirting Cucumber and Peacock Flower (Caesalpina) is a beaut , both can be grown in summer up there in 6a.

I looked up squirting cucumber and they a little video of one shooting its seeds everywhere. Pretty cool. It was in slow mo, nice seed shots.The peacock flower is beautiful. The popcorn Senna didymobotrya is a tropical that I was growing as an annual. The flower buds were just beginning to form when the first freeze came. There were ants on a couple of my sennas feeding from special nectar, glands apparently there just for them. Do you get ants on your plants? Myrmecophytes are so cool. I forgot to include Chamaecrista fascicularis, partridge pea. The weediest of all my legumes. I grew asparagus pea, Lotus tetrangonolobus a few years ago. It had red flowers and cool looking pods. I also tried a red flowered shrub from New Zealand, Clianthus maybe? Never could get it to grow. And the fragrant coral, bean, shell vine, Vigna, grew that. Dolchios lablab yep, scarlet runner bean, crimson clover.

Nice shots! Yeah I really liked that Senna didymobotrya that you listed, along with Mimosa nuttallii Mimosa hostilis and Apios priceana. Ants love the Ricinus specimens that I have when they are grown, I have seen them on Peacock flower though. I used to have

Hydnophytum formicarum that I germinated from a few that I got from my university greenhouse as a gift from the curator. Those are wild, the ants seem to just come with the plant, it's wild. The Vigna coral vine is all over LA, I like that chap.
