Wollemi and water

For Macro Mondays weekly project No 388: theme "Leaf of my favourite tree". This was taken just after a shower of rain left some water droplets.

The Wollemi is a fascinating Australian tree. Rare in nature (fewer than 100 in a National Park),These trees were first discovered as recently as 1994 only about 150km from the city of Sydney, having previously been known only as fossils - some dating back 200M years! The most recent known fossil was 4M years old. To help preserve these trees, they have since been grown and sold extensively. I have previously posted photos of this tree here.
