index A dried flower is seldom liking so that it may be a mummy. But, acorn, etc. are set as the object of collection.

(1) Pinecone
A big pinecone excites interest. However, it is not interesting to buy to be sold, either ... What has gathered in Aegina in Greece.
(2) Alnus japonica
This is planted around the house in large numbers. Although a nut is also good, the flower which blooms in the early summer emits a sweet scent and is desirable.
(3) Cypress?
Although I do not understand in what nut, there was about 10m of tree height. This has also been extracted in Greece (OIA of a SANTORINI). Although it was a form like the potato which carried out about 3cm green when it extracted, it took for drying, the surface broke, and it had been turned over, and became an unexpected form.
(4) A seed with the wings of namelessness
Although it is the roadside tree of Madrid, it does not know what tree it is. The seed is attached to one side of an about 7cm leaf. It falls slowly, rotating, if it throws and lifts. A form is different although it falls while the seed of maple rotates similarly. My parents are gathering the same leaf in Barcelona.
(5) The seed of a zelkova with wings
Fate was bad, and it wavered in the balcony of a house, and was captured. It falls rotating, if this is also given up and lifted.
(6) Horse chestnut?
If now comes, it does not understand when and where a harvest has been gathered. Probably, it is the horse chestnut of Paris. The young nut was harvested, and since it was made to dry, it has contracted.
(7) Horse chestnut
It gathered in Dresden, Germany. It was made the material of a marron glace, and it was made cake and was eating in Japan a long time ago. However, it is serious to extract bitter taste and, seemingly, Germans will not eat. Still, although children gathered, seemingly, it will be somehow made feed.
(8) The nut of lauan
The name of "the nut of a japanese - shuttlecock" could be attached and it was sold in the florist. If it is "the nut of a shuttlecock", I think that "sapindus mukurossi" (the nut of "sapindus mukurossi" is traditionally made into the material of the weight of a japanese - shuttlecock) and "buckleya lanceolata" (it has four feather) is a correct answer. Although it has splendid wings, straight fall is carried out without rotating, since a nut is also splendid.
