Does anyone know what this tree/flower is.. they were growing in Tenerife the flower buds look like upside down bunches of bananas.

ReplyDeleteSpathodea
Spathodea is a monotypic genus in the flowering plant family Bignoniaceae. The single species it contains, Spathodea campanulata, is commonly known as the Fountain Tree, African Tulip Tree, Pichkari or Nandi Flame
