I love this tree. I had them in California but they never bloomed. They do so beautifully here.

Silk Floss Tree
This tree popped up in the arroyo a block from my house a couple of years ago. It is right next to the street, so I see it every time I leave my house. It produces huge pods full of kapok.

Flowering Madagascar Palm for FOTD, June 8, 2023
Click on photos to enlarge.
I have been driving past this blooming Madagascar Palm Tree for over a week now and every time I think I’ll stop and photograph it. I finally did. I love this tree. I have three of them in my lower garden in the spare lot. I don’t think they are blooming yet, though. I need to go peer over the wall to see.

Palm Tree Blooms: FOTD Apr 4, 2023
Click on photos to enlarge.
The first photo shows the fruiting bundle of the palm tree in full bloom. The men came yesterday to trim them off the trees. Pretty, but a real mess when the petals fall like snow to cover the surface of the pool as well as the grass and terrace. If the fruit is left to ripen and fall, it is a further daily chore to clear them away. The dogs love them but can choke on the huge pits.

Autumn Color in Mexico
The most autumn color we get in my part of Mexico is the vibrant African Tulip trees that are in full bloom right now.
