Princess Tree
It is planted at the birth of a girl.
The fast-growing tree matures when she does.
On the day she marries, the tree is cut
and carved into a marriage chest for her dowry.
Its texture is smooth, almost soft.
A phoenix will land only on Princess Tree
and only when a good ruler is in power.
It is a persistent exotic invasive.
The beautiful flowers have a sweet smell.
The seeds are winged.
They disperse by wind and water.
They are not fussy about the soil.
This tree can grow from a crack in the pavement.
They disperse by wind and water.
They are not fussy about the soil.
This tree can grow from a crack in the pavement.
It can survive wildfire and regenerate,
but it will not thrive in the shade of another tree.
but it will not thrive in the shade of another tree.
