12' tall china doll, 15 years old, first blossom, July 2007. This tree is potted and has been "topped-off" many times to keep it a reasonable height.

This "China Doll" is 7 1/2 yrs old and has withstood two major hurricanes, both "Rita" and "Ike". Note the lean to the left thanks to "Ike".

These are the seed pods of the 'China Doll Tree", hence also given the name, "Serpent Tree".
