Hum. I don't know what these are but I spotted them yesterday in Golden Gate Park's Botanical Garden which means they are botanical. Probably poisonous.

Enjoy.

My iPhone's Photos app recognised them as Buddleja globosa, also known as the orange-ball-tree.

Good news! Mona will be a one-time purchase app, and will be available on App Store this Spring:
Free trial: 14-day full-feature access for free, with no recurring fee.
Mona Essential: full-feature access on a single platform (iPhone, iPad, or Mac) for 10 USD.
Mona Extra: full-feature access on 3 platforms (iPhone, iPad, and Mac), and supports family sharing. Mona users can upgrade from Essential to Extra for 7 USD.
If you have purchased Spring or Spring mini, Mona Extra will be just 9 USD.

garry,

@MonaApp @garry

I'll change them to something like !smh instead.
