A Little Rain Oracle - Jellyfish Tree
The name of the jellyfish tree is a flower that truly is as unique as its name implies. Originally called Medusagyne — named after Medusa from Greek mythology – they’re characterised by multiple thin tentacles which cannot germinate in the wild.
They’re one of the few plant species that host flowers that are male and bisexual, and their flowers develop a deeper red colour with age, showing their tenacity like a badge of honour even as their population declines as a whole.
For a while, it was even thought to be extinct until, after a long disappearance, the jellyfish tree reappeared in its native land, Seychelles. The jellyfish tree is an excellent example of surviving against all odds.

Beggartick and strawberry are both bisexual flowers, where beggarticks cannot self-pollinate and strawberries can. Not being able to self-pollinate--->hybrid vigor--->beggarticks are everywhere. Misshapen strawberries are often times the results of self-pollination.
But you know they are just as sweet. And the flower is still just as pretty.

Kratom, a tree from the Rubiaceae family produces yellow globular alien-looking flowers. These peculiar trees reproduce great in humid locations of South East Asia like Indonesia. When kratom seed pods ripen to full maturity, the flowers explode and lots of seeds get dispersed in the air and the earth. Mitragyna speciosa is a precious explosion, a tribute to life’s natural creations, and an eruption of fertility, fruitfulness, fecundity, richness, vivacity, and abundance. Kratom is a fertile evergreen tree that has male and female reproductive organs within the same flower. From a spiritual and psychological point of view, kratom trees teach us about the importance of unity and togetherness. They also teach us to be autonomous creative beings. While Mitragyna speciosa is a hermaphrodite, others refer to kratom as bisexual trees. So, what exactly does it mean to be a hermaphrodite/bisexual/perfect tree? It simply means that the flowers on hermaphroditic trees (in this case kratom trees) can pollinate themselves. Kratom is a powerful self-sufficient tree; a perfect symbol of coexistence, symmetry, and singularity. Green Life. Green Hope. #AndrogynousTrees #TheDivineHermaphrodite #BisexualFlowers #IndoAmerianKratom #NaturalPlantMaterialDye #KratomInternationalEcommerce
