Riding around on my electric bicycle I saw quite a few trees and I pulled together a few pictures to illustrate our urban jungle in Key West. Before the Navy piped tap water to key West in World War Two the city survived on rain water stored in cisterns so there wasn't water to spare to irrigate gardens and trees. Since then Key West has become a lot greener.
We end with a weird looking palm with horns at the post office.

I believe it's a Plantation Palm?
I thought it might be a bottle palm but ever since net neutrality went away the Google search function seems to have lost a lot of it's random usefulness. Its a particularly odd looking tree before the leaves unfold and there's one on Eisenhower Drive too but neither has a useful label to help me look more botanical than I am.
