This tree is growing down the road from my house. Some day my baby will grow up to look like this.

I'm looking for the desert variety of Poinciana, D. elata, which has cream coloured flowers. Also I'm looking for unusal species of Dracena similar to draco but native to the Atlas mountains, Ethopia and Yemen. The pink Jacaranda from Cuba is another one. J. arborea. Lastly I'm looking for Argania spinosum, the Argan tree native to coastal areas of Morocco near Agadir.

This year Delonix regia flowered better than years past, although they don't flower nearly as profusely like they do in the tropics. This tree is in downtown Lake Placid, Florida. Some years they flower better than others.

Same tree five years earlier, with less blooms:
