Happy Friday Everyone! This Friday we return to Puerto Rico to bring you the leaves of a Trumpet Tree (also referred to colloquially as Snakewood). The Trumpet Tree (Cecropia peltata) has been identified on the Global Invasive Species Database as one of the ‘worst 100’ invasive species. This is why we don’t bring seeds into foreign countries, kids.
