I don’t do this very often, but every once in a while there is just something so amazing in the Christina Reiman Butterfly Wing besides butterflies that I have to share. Over the next month, the Starburst Shrub (Celrodendrum quadriloculare) in the Butterfly Wing will be flowering. The Starburst is a tropical flowering shrub which can grow fifteen feet tall. During the winter months this shrub produces large clusters of very long flowers which are a sight to see.
