Weeping form in Balboa Park, San Diego, looks to be different from the weeping A. ingens at Lotus Land, which are more spindly and I daresay, more sickly looking. This one is extremely robust, a good 20' wide by 25' high.

That was a woman in a chador. She was posing for a picture & I didn't want to be disrespectful, but then she kept lingering with her back to me. Very exotic, not what I expected in Balboa Park...
