  4. I hadn't realised pepper came from a tree! It's very interesting to see the trees these spices come from.

  7. What interesting plants! Nothing like those where I live. For some reason I thought cinnamon and nutmeg came from a bush and not a tree.

  8. Those are all so very cool. Wouldn't it be great if cinnamon filled the air from that tree?

  9. This is going to sound crazy, but I have often wondered where cinnamon comes from -- seriously.
    Now I know.
    Thank you.
    These are great shots.
