Ceiba speciosa (fka: Chorisia speciosa) - Kapok Tree, Floss Silk Tree

Beautiful pic Delonix :o)

Terratoonie:

Thanks! : > ) It's one of my favorite flowering trees. I love the scarlet and burgandy colored flowering varieties best.

Is this the one with the prickly trunk and branches which store water ?

Terratoonie:

Yes, this tree has a huge water-storing trunk with thousands of big thorns all over.

Wow its a stunner ...Wonderful flowers ..;o)))

Thanks! A huge tree is incredibly breathtaking when in full bloom.

Beautiful against that fantastic blue sky Delonix...:>)
