I was walking underneath our trellis of the native Wisteria macrostachya last week, and was amazed how artfully Mother Nature had arranged the seed pods on the patio. Wisteria seed are heavy, and would naturally drop in a single pile, but instead, the pods twist, and in doing so, ballistically shoot the seed out at distance from the parent plant, and from each other to assist with seedling survival. Nature is quite amazing if we slow down enough to notice.
