The most amazing tree I have ever seen

 The most amazing tree I have ever seen

Several years ago I went on a trip to the island of Mannar, with my family members.We spent a few days there and we visited various places.

During that time there is a special thing that my mind collided.That is a most amazing tree I have ever seen. It can be identified as "Baobab Tree"which is an ancient tree that is located in Pallimuai,Mannar.      The trunk of the tree is 700 years old.It measures more than 60 feet around, so we can be identified it as the oldest and largest baobab in Sri Lanka.

The Mannar island has a long history.According to oral history of there, several centuries ago an arab trader brought with him a herd of camels and baobab fruit on the shores of Mannar.A seed of this fruit fell on the ground and then it took roots and a tree sprouted.This tree is native to Africa. Because of their gray rough bark, locals call it as "ali gasa" or "elephant trees.

  There are many flowers in the world.Some of them are very rare and special.Now I'm going to tell you about such a flower that I like the most. Skeleton Flower is the most amazing flower.They can be found in only three parts of the world.This plant grows on moist,wooded mountainsides in Japan,China and Appalachion mountains in United States. We can identify a unique quality of this flower. When this flowers make contact with water,their petals turn transparent.It happens because of a loose cell structure in the white flowers.Not because the colour of the flowers fades.When it rains,water fills in the cells of the petals and when it dry,turn back to being white.
