Holy crap....that is AWESOME. Seed pods everywhere. This species is know for having flowers that are easily self pollinated (dosent need a bugs help). May be evident by the # of pods on those things. I have one in my collection that has bloomed twice and immediately (1-2 days) lost the flower to produce a seed pod.
Thank you for the pics. All get around here on my trees is Poison Ivy and Creeping Charlie.
