Cap Malheureux with another view of Coin de Mire in the background, approximately 4.5 km offshore from the nearest village of Cap Malheureux in the north tip of the Mauritius mainland. The flamboyant tree, also known as bouquet banana, discovered in Madagascar in 1824, is now common in the tropical belt and became a part of the Mauritian folklore .It is noted for its fern-like leaves and flamboyant display of orange-red flowers over summer. In many tropical parts of the world it is grown as an ornamental tree and in English it is given the name royal poinciana, flamboyant, flame of the forest, or flame tree.
Another gorgeous card from Tasneem, thanks a lot!
