Bladdernut shrub (Staphylea trifolia)

This is a rare native species in the region, with the biggest colony on Petrie Island. I had forgotten about the one at FWG, near the pond, which was planted years and years ago. It is now a good size and there were a few pods on the shrub, which were what caught my eye. The bark is very beautiful when examined up close. This image shows the seedpod and bark.
