    I think you could say that in Brazil its the opposite: there's flowers on the ants. Posted 2 months ago

The Yellow Trumpet-Tree

"Tabebuia aurea" is a species of "Tabebuia" native to South America in Suriname, Brazil, eastern Bolivia, Peru, Paraguay, and northern Argentina. The common English name Caribbean trumpet tree is misleading, as it is not native to the Caribbean. It is also known as the silver trumpet tree, and tree of gold.
