I took a walk to the Botannical Gardens in the evening. A section of it near the Bukit Timah Road has medicinal plants, exotic trees (at least to me), palms, bamboos, the papyrus plant from Egypt, from which kind the ancients used to make paper. There is also a foot reflexology pathway. Upon leaving the gardens, I saw a tree, the buttercup tree, with beautiful yellow flowers and with fruits containing silk, after which the tree takes its other name: cotton silk tree. Being in the flowering season, the grass around it is littered with yellow flowers, and I took some home.
