The caption says "dried out leaves" but like the Maniltoa of Queensland that's flush of new leaves limp and pink mostly lacking chlorophyll. I assume they use a pulvinus to pull themselves up into a more lateral position. Didn't know any other tree did this. Thanks.

I think both the flowers and the young leaves are gorgeous...Wish we could grow such things here.

having a botanist read my blog from time to time is turning out to be a very useful thing :)
