This week’s ‘Only in the DR’ photo was sent to us by Sandra Alvarado and is as she describes it an “orange juice carton tree!”According to Sandra, these magical orange juice carton trees only grow on the side of road on the way to Constanza – I wonder what type of fertilizer they use to make the trees grew like this?
Of course, the actual trees aren’t really growing the orange juice cartons, but they have been tied there presumably by the sales man to attract attention to his store/tree. I think it’s a great idea – very unique! What I am wondering is – are the cartons empty or full? Does he take them down each night to stop them from being stolen or blown away? My guess is that they are empty ones and the ones for sale are stored somewhere a little more accesible/practical.
Does this count as littering? Or is it just good recycling? YOU DECIDE! Leave a comment below and let me know what you think!
GREAT photo Sandra! Thank you very much!
