Combretum coccineum Lam., a climbing shrub of Combretaceae in full bloom at my factory in Pune. This Bride's Bouquet(?) is heralding the arrival of spring. Regards,

This is so pretty. From a distance I could have confused with Erythrina!!

Thanks for sharing beautiful pic of a beautiful plant.

I have planted this climber in my house when the last one died. It has not reached flower stage.

I have seen this species in Chennai also in Dasaprakash Hotel Complex
Campus, but do not have the photograph to upload I hope it is the
same variety.
