I agree absolutely gorgeous! I love all the seed pods...I bet it sounds like a maraca concert when the wind blows through the tree.

Delonix I hadn't thought about that - you're right it does sound a bit like a maracca concert when the wind whips up!

Bernieh:

I know in the Carribean...where Delonix regia - Flamboyan trees grow wild...they use the seed pods as maracas.
