Tabebuia ochracea

Tabebuia ochracea,[1][2] known as corteza amarillia in Spanish, is a timber tree native to South America, Cerrado and Pantanal vegetation in Brazil. It is very similar and closely related to and often confused with the Golden Trumpet Tree, Tabebuia chrysotricha. It is a seasonal flowering tree, blossoming only during spring (September). During this time, all leaves fall and only flowers remain in the crown.

Notes

gollark: I'm basically entirely staying at home because of the whole COVID-19 thing, and I live in the middle of nowhere anyway, so I don't really know if there's been rioting locally or not. Apparently London had some issues, at least.
gollark: > write your own demandHmmm....
gollark: I quite like Iceland, personally, although more because I visited it and it was nice than anything about its governance or whatever.

gollark: I do wonder how that got added to Unicode.
