Gulmohar- Delonix Regia

The gulmohar, also known as Flame Tree is covered with clusters of flame red flowers. Finally I've posted a flower whose name I'm sure of.
Tomorrow, the 16th of June, we complete the 100th post. Posted by Picasa

    You have some wonderful plants; many are new to me and probably wouldn't grow in England unless protected.

    Your flower photographs are just stunning. Love the collage of the Manish market too.

    And congratulations for your 100th tomorrow.

    I think your photo of this tree with so many bright red flowers is very good. I like it. I have not seen or heard of this tree before. Does it then have a fruit or a nut after the flowers?

    Do I have the synonyms for you. I will post my poinciana tomorrow. But it probably will not be the last one that I post. Every place you look, you find magnificent trees ablaze in color.

    I know the name "Flame Tree" only from the title of a book that was very popular here (but which I've never read): The Flame Trees of Thika: Memories of an African Childhood by Elspeth Huxley. Never knew what it looked like, though. Great photos.
