hello!
i have been collecting seeds from the garden today, and came across this one (see attached file), and was wondering if anyone knew what it was? it's some sort of tree or shrub, evergreen, which is hanging over the wall from next door. i remember it had some quite beautiful white blossom earlier in the spring.
the seed pod is irresistibly interesting in shape, but i haven't been able to get anywhere with my own research.
thanks for your help!
