| The seeds are probably going to be the best clue. Tri-winged, dark brown balls, around 3/8" in diameter. The pods are almost a foot long.

| That looks like the edible Moringa tree. |

| Tnanks, that's exactly what it is Moringa oleifera. I've put the seeds in some soil in one-gallon cans and will let them grow. |

| I think I have seen this type of tree growing along the entrance of Sea World - Orlando. At least the trees there had very similar 'pea pods' hanging down from it. Would anyone else happen to be familiar with the trees I'm talking about and be able to semi-confirm that those are the same as this tree? I only ask because my wife really loved the look of those trees and I have yet to discover what they were. And of course, we didn't have our camera with us for that trip. At Sea World, they would have been on the right-hand side as you entered the park. |

| Does anyone have Moringa seeds they can pass along in SASE? |
