| Botong fruit on the beach |

| Iconic multi-sided fruit |
I saw this botong fruit on a beach in Siquijor. Botong (Barringtonia asiatica) is a very common tree in beach areas around the Philippines and the rest of the tropics, but i did not see a single tree on the beach where I saw the fruit. It probably came from a tree in the next cove, or from another island, or another province. I may never know but what is certain is that this fruit is here and if conditions are right, it may grow into another botong tree.

There is a Botong Tree at the entrance of the Chinese Garden in Rizal Park.
