Oh what a beauty!. Thanks for sharing. Thoughts came to mind.... The tree shares some characters with our native Firmiana colorata. Both have acer like leaves. Flowers same colour and pattern (Tepals)though size shape differs.

Dear All:
Family: Malvaceae
Genus: Brachychiton
Species: B. acerifolius
This also called Illawarra flame tree, is from Australia,
But I found it in Sandiego, Souther California , driving past park… could stop only for a few seconds… and grabbed these pictures… came home took me a while to track down what it was.. this intensely crimson tree is not so common… looking through images of hundreds of red flowered tree yielded results… it’s a Brachychiton acerifolius… the story ended there, I had a beautiful curiosity on my hands, so what… but then I joined eflora … and one day Mr Raman submitted one to ID from Bangalore… lo !!!! And he even sent me some seeds.. I have planted 6 of these , will update when I have something to show …
In the mean time the thread that helped me /us to see that it also grows in India is here: http://groups.google.com/group/indiantreepix/browse_thread/thread/f03d01e57c2c8baf/6d2edcf81d8b4801?#6d2edcf81d8b4801
Even in Australia I have been told that its widely cultivated… in parks….and in San Diego does not seem to have been invasive so far… not seen any reports to suggest it is..
Enjoy
