Lorloz is what the Seychellois call the small silver-painted clock that marks the centre of Victoria: a copy of the one that stands near Victoria station, in London. Above the town, the Morne Seychellois carries a mist forest on its granite, and on a few neighbouring slopes the jellyfish tree survives, once thought extinct. At Anse Royale, nutmeg and cinnamon were once planted in a spice garden. The garden did not last; the birds had already sown the cinnamon, which still covers the island's hills.
