At km 93, from El Rancho northward (heading for Coban), there is Haematoxylum brasiletto in full flowering mode this week.
This tree grows surrounded by cactus plants.
In Peten the palo de campeche grows in seasonally inundated swamps. But palo de tinto flowers in a different month.
We use the route through Alta Verapaz to drive from the FLAAR Mesoamerica office to accomplish field work in the PNYNN and PANAT areas of the RBM, Peten.
Lots of friendly bees sucking nectar out of the pretty yellow flowers.
