I am trying to find the correct spelling for the tree which has flaming red blossoms, thousands of small petals. I believe it is called flamboy?n, but I don't know if I am spelling it right. I am also curious as to whether there is an English name for it.

Thanks, Mike

Flamboyant !

It's a french adjective that means "blazing"... beautiful tree down here that can change the landscape, when it has all the red flowers, people should plant more of these...
