[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Davidia Involucrata (Ghost Tree, Dove Tree or Handkerchief Tree)

The species was introduced from China to Europe and North America in 1904, and is a popular ornamental tree in larger gardens. Most trees in cultivation are var. vilmoriniana, which has proved much better able to adapt to the climatic conditions in Europe and North America.

This one was growing in Inverewe, on the North West Coast of Scotland - photographed with the aperture wide open due to the high winds!
