Dioon edule seed pod.

Walking past the cycad circle recently I noticed that the end of a Dioon edule seed pod had fallen away, revealing a perfectly packaged interior. It reminded me of the exquisite symmetry of mahogany seed pods, which I love to find just barely opened so I can admire the design. See what you think.

I love mahogany pods! The ones that are fixed to stay open like the one you have pictured here are great for using in wreath designs, centerpieces, and other flower arrangements.
