Photo shows the Plaza de Recreo Alfredo Raffucci in Rincón, Boriken (Puerto Rico). The Plaza is rich in green infrastructure including a couple of Melaleuca citrina trees, known locally as 'Cepillo de Botella'. This Australian tree provides excellent shade for recreational activities, works well in drought prone conditions, and has spectacular red flowers which nurture local pollinators and Boricua birds like the Zumbador.
