Thanks Irish and Clarice - it is a fascinating bloom and the tree is now nearly covered in blooms all over the top.

Very striking with its unusual blooms!

Thanks Morgana and Pansypotter - I find the claw-like pods quite unusual.

Well, that looks familiar! LOL!

The beautiful African Tulip Tree! I never tire of looking
at them.

It's a gem of a tree - very familiar to us both as they're common here as well as there.

Bernieh:

It is a gem of a tree...even though we're lucky enough
to be able to grow these beauties...it's nice to share the photos with our GoY friends in England, Canada, most
of the U.S. and other countries where they can never be grown outside.

You're so right Delonix.

If our climate warms up ,as we are promised, maybe we will grow it here. Alas I will be off this world by then and possibly helping to improve the soil structure!!! Lovely tree.
