The Autumn Tree

The Thai crape myrtle is native of the tropical region of Southeast Asia.

In Thailand, it is the provincial tree of Saraburi Province.

Scientific name - Lagerstroemia Floribunda

The leaves gives this tree its character. The leaves will turn red before they fall. This happens twice a year.

Lagerstroemia Floribunda can be seen all over Singapore. It is a better known genus of about 50 species.

Moving ? You'll Need It

Made from polyethylene (LDPE) film with air bubbles, the bubble pack cushions fragile items during transit.

Invented by Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes in 1957.

Alfred Fielding was born 31 August 1917 in Kirkland. Died 7 July 1994 in Kirkland, Washington at age 76.

Marc Chavannes was born on 2 March 1896 and died on 6 April 1994 in Sarasota County, Florida at the age of 98. Chavannes is a native of Switzerland and spent part of his professional life as a judge on the World Court and at the League of Nations before entering business.

Air is not injected into all those tiny bubbles. Instead, it is trapped between two sheets after they pass over several rollers, one of which creates the indentations for the bubbles.
