0 offers

Bird-catcher tree (Pisonia grandis), also known as the umbrella tree, is a unique plant species native to the tropical and subtropical Pacific Islands. It is a low-maintenance evergreen tree that can grow up to 10m tall. Its glossy, leathery leaves feature prominently in its attractive habits. The tree's most obvious feature is its sticky seeds, which entrap unsuspecting birds in its sticky substance, rendering them unable to fly away. The bird-catcher tree plays an important role in maintaining many avian ecosystems, providing shelter and food for a variety of bird species. It is necessary for preventing habitat destruction, as well as providing an easy source of food for local communities.
