Bolsa Pastor urchin pods are the textured, uniquely shaped seed pods of the Zeyheria montana tree, sourced from Brazil. Their striking urchin-like exterior and sturdy shell make them one of the most visually distinctive botanicals available — and their large size makes them excellent structural hides in blackwater aquascapes, biotope setups, and bioactive terrariums. Dart frogs love to hide in these nut pods.
