Matt CliftonI had always wondered why there were streets in my county in Central Texas named Bois d'arc, and never knew where the name originated. I'm now learning that Bois d'arc is apparently the French name for the trees that grow what I know to be called "horse apples". Apparently the trees are actually called Osage orange trees, or the hedge apple tree (maclura pomifera). <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Texas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Texas</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Trees" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Trees</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Plants" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Plants</a> <a href="https://en.osm.town/tags/Etymology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Etymology</a>
