    I could not figure out what I was looking at. So I googled the name and saw a beautiful tree, unusual to me as it did not have any leaves, but scattered about on the branches, seemingly at random, were red flowers.

    I just saw another photo and I realise the photo above is the seed capsules that form after the flowers have bloomed.

    What an unusual tree.

    Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
