    Any clues on the tree? Looks like an unripe pine cone to me.
    If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.

    Looks like something I saw a good while ago at Cambridge Botanic Gardens ... can't remember what it was tho'  :(

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.

    Is it growing in the UK, if not, where?

    Sorry, I just noticed you said Scotland.  At first I thought it was a rambutan, but they're tropical.
