Guess what ... no boring garden pics this time.
But this has to come:
the biggest "avocado" tree I've ever seen.
It's in Cala Mesquida, a tiny tourist village close to our
holiday home in Mallorca.
Now the hotels are still closed due to corona.
But hey, have a look at the flower/inflorecence? Avocado ... not really!
Plant recognizing app tells me that this tree is an elephant tree,
phytolacca dioica, commonly known as ombú.
The sap is poisonous, this could be a good tree for my garden,
especially after the last weeks' fight against all kinds of pests.
Da der Saft der Pflanze giftig ist, wird sie von Pflanzenfressern
gemieden. Darüber hinaus ist die Zweihäusige Kermesbeere gegen
Heuschrecken und andere Plagen immun.
In German this tree is called: Zweihäusige Kermesbeere. Wow.
The beach. Look at that empty beach, so pretty!
Only the life savers on duty, Pamela Anderson and co.
The weather is not cold, it is only cloudy.
And later, yes, it started to rain.
Cala Mesquida is quite a children friendly holiday spot.
Next stop in Son Moll, close to our shopping
paradise street (Lidl, Mercadona, Müller).
They are working on the promenade.
Hopefully done by beginning of July when the Germans arrive.
Even this coy bar is closed. Träumeria.
Sea view in June 2020!!!
Monday beach in June 2020.
Relax, the Majorcan summer is just starting,
like I wrote in my previous posting.
Today is May 39, you have to keep your
raincoat ready until the May 40th!
