In this picture -- the Boswellia tree (which for me and people of my generation, probably puts David Doyle in your head, but I digress). This tree is NOT connected to Charlie or his three Angels, but it is instead key to the Magi/three Wise Men lore. Boswellia trees are the source of frankincense, and they are ecologically threatened in their native Ethiopia, with some scientists saying they'll be 90% gone in 50 years.
So we're going to need another incense for the second coming, as frankincense, as a wise gift, you might just be missing.
OOPS THERE GOES ANOTHER BOSWELLIA PLANT:
