Inktober Day Twenty Three: Anopterus| Mountain Laurel

The twenty third day of Inktober 2019. The flower for today is Anopterus, a small understorey shrub that flowers in the spring and then often again in the fall. Under the right conditions it can be grown into a tree. Anopterus comes from the Greek words "ano" meaning upwards and "pteron" meaning wing. This is referring to the winged seeds.
