Senna beans

Remember those curved Senna pistils that are destined to become beans?

Here are the young beans, starting to grow on the Senna tree that flowered first this season.

[I've been in the U.S. for the past three weeks. I'd intended to post this image with a note to the effect that I'd be away, but I didn't get it done. Came back to find a banana plant in flower. :-) About that tomorrow.]
