Peltophorum africanum - African Wattle Tree

Looks like summer to me..Lol.

Terratoonie:

It may look like summer...however, it was only
73 degrees F./ 23 degrees C. this day...and the
days are shorter and nights are longer and cooler
now. It has been very clear and sunny though. : > )

ONLY 73 degrees!!! I'm not going to tell you how cold (and wet) its been here...

Rbtkew:

How cold and wet is it?

The day before I went to Quail Botanical Gardens it
was around 80 degrees F. / 27 degrees C. and today it's
beautiful, comfortable (71 degrees F) and sunny...however,
there's potential changes coming next week. The meteorologists
predict a big rain storm for a couple of days next week...which
we need so badly. Our drought has gone from bad to worse...
and I just hate the water-restrictions!

We have just had the wettest November on record, frost last night.Parts of Cumbria in the northwest of the UK have had severe floods...and its just the start of winter!

Rbtkew:

WOW! I hope the weather improves for you soon!

I did see Sandra's pics of all the flooding in
the city where she lives in Southewest England.
It was amazing! I wonder if it's because of El Niño?

Aleyna in Southern Brazil said her city
has had the most rain in 50 years.

I do know that El Niño affects the weather around
the world...and as you said it's not even winter
officially yet.

In California we usually receive a lot of rain from very
big storms during El Niño years. We are actually
hoping for it this winter to end the 7 year drought!

I have recently started a GoYpedia category called Flood Damage...
go to base of page and click on F and that will lead you to the page...

You can see photos of Gee19's garden recently flooded :o(

Terratoonie:

I'll check it out. I wish they would send
some of their excess rain here. : > )

We are suppose to get some real rain
here on Sunday night and Monday...
I hope it actually comes! : > )

Lovely tree!

Thanks! Usually this tree is covered with many more flowers in summer.
If you like this pic...check out my pics of Peltophorum pterocarpum - Yellow Poinciana...they are even more spectacular in bloom.
