Not a botanist

If I had time or motivation, I'd figure out the name of the tree that produces these beautiful yellow-orange flowers.

As I walked up the drive of our apartment complex, I thought of a Hindu wedding - where the bride's path is covered with flower blossoms. (I guess some Americans do that for their weddings, but they use giant rose petals.)

- loved your photo of the papaya-less papaya tree.
