Beautiful photo. The flowers look gorgeous! I had a red royal poinciana tree in my yard in Bradenton, FL. I moved to Venice, and about a year ago, a tree suddenly began growing in the yard from a very large, half-buried root that I thought was from a nearby jacaranda. I was surprised when it bloomed this year and turned out to be a yellow poinciana, with completely different flower size and shape than the royal. Also, the seed pods are different. This white one has the same flowers in a spire like my yellow one.
