'Flame of the forest' welcomes summer in SW China
CGTN

When summer comes, the orange-red flowers of Delonix regia begin to bloom in Xinping Yi and Dai Autonomous County, southwest China's Yunnan Province. Rooted alongside the road, the clusters of flowers look like raging fire – the tree is also called "flame of the forest" or "flame tree."
