Now here is a little – and rather easy perhaps for most of those who follow me – botanical riddle: which tree has photobombed virtually all of my holiday pictures of Kotor, Montenegro?
Let me know in the comments if you know!

Aliantus altissima aka the cat pee tree 😉
Oh, I didn’t know that alias :D!
The flowers smell *intensely* like cat pee 🙂
I don’t know the trees, but it is wonderful to see photos from across the world.
Thanks! It’s Ailanthus altisimma, the tree of heaven, a very characteristic non-native species popping up all over Europe! It’s from Asia but seems to be very flexible in where it can and wants to live.
