Nature’s Puzzle

Grand Illusions has a story about puzzles that grow on trees.  The tree is called a Patience Tree or a Cannonball Mangrove and at the core of the fruit is a collection of seeds that fit together perfectly.  This is sometimes called a Monkey Puzzle Nut.  When the seeds fall apart, they form a 3D puzzle to solve.  A video is available on the site for you to see what this looks like.
