I think I discovered a new tree species while out and about in the San Gabes today. It had very unusual fruit. Anyone come across this before?

Ha! Good one Rambo, although Mad Maxon has clearly done more scientific research into this than either of us. :)

I also have a photo of this tree from March 2013! The blooms must last a geologically long time!

Tapatalk ate the previous photo. Is this on the Gabrielino between Switzer's and Red Box saddle?
