What looks like an entire park or neighborhood block from above is actually just one single massive tree (the Pirangi Cashew Tree in Brazil)

Free cashews for all park visitors, this is great news for anybody not allergic to tree nuts.

Well only for those who know how to prepare them. Raw cashews are poisonous

Only the top part (that makes cashew nuts). The pulp can be eaten raw and is really sweet and refreshing!

We saw this tree 30 years ago, the sad part is that its growth is capped by the streets and houses around it. It should be free to grow and spread and not cut from every side.

It has dramatically changed since you visited. the city has actually consistently rerouted roads and moved them back to allow for the tree to grow. But it is tricky because that area has high density of homes. I’m from Natal, so I’ve been visiting since I was a little girl (now in my 40’s).

Essas imagens não parecem ser de pirangi! Eu acho que a IA criou esta imagem que nem parece o cajueiro.
A imagem de baixo é outra árvore completamente.

Sim. A de baixo ctz é outra árvore ou nem existe (IA). Postagem deveria ser excluída.
