Triumphant

A developing fruit of a Limber Bush (Jatropha cardiophylla). Remember, a fruit is the thing that contains/holds/transports the seed(s).
Speaking of seeds, I highly recommend the book: The Triumph of Seeds: How Grains, Nuts, Kernels, Pulses, and Pips Conquered the Plant Kingdom and Shaped Human History by Thor Hanson. (Yes, Thor.) Written for the non-expert, full of wit and wisdom. A true delight.
