It was a relatively sunny Sunday evening in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown. After several days of postponement due to the fear of enforcement agencies, I was able to finally summon the courage to leave my house and pay a family friend a visit. The destination was about a twenty-minute drive from my apartment. The sight that greeted me upon getting to the place was a pleasant one for a plant enthusiast like me.

How could you stepped out, i will surely report you to the authority(Am actually joking). The tree reminds me of my high school days. The red coloured petals use to attract us then. I think the fruit is has hard back and it normally make some funny sound when shaken. This is a nice write up @gentleshaid.
I didn't break any rule ::). Yes, that's the plant. I think they use to cal it "eko ọmọdé" back then.
Yeah eko omode back then.
It really looks like agmoore's profile pic. Is it the same tree species @agmoore ?
You are quite observant. It does looks like it but I can't say that with certainty until I can get a closer look at the image.
Hi @mathowl,
I got my picture from wikimedia commons. It's a Pōhutukawa tree, native to New Zealand.
That's a beautiful fire tree. Be careful out there and avoid getting caught by the virus and by the authority.
Indeed. I'm being very careful. Thanks
