Puff Ball "Almost" Identified



Our company has arrived from Virginia. Thanks to Pat, we now know that this is not the fruit of the tree... it is a parasite that is filled with a gray powder that I assume is spores that will carry in the wind to propagate the species. Another friend said that his father always called Devil's Puff Balls and not to ever inhale the powder. Pat says they grow on oak trees... and we have plenty of those... Thanks to Rose and Mariella who researched several places for me to try to find out...
