|
Royal Poinciana tree bloomed this year  . It will hold for 4-8 weeks. Creating a high umbrella look. It took 4 years to bloom  . It has been threw a lot in the last 2 years with 3 hurricanes. Thought at one time it was going to die. I think that's why it took so long. Here is one of the flowers that came off.

I was going to take a pic of the tree and it started to rain. The flower has rain drops on it if u look closely. After building the house 5 years ago I just planted everything I saw and loved and never took names. I'm learning from this site tho. It's a lot of fun too.
