These are the most beautiful poinciana photos being shared on the internet today

The flame-red-flowered poinciana trees are out in force at this time of year, brightening up suburban streets and putting us all in the Christmas spirit up north. Here are the best images of the flamboyant trees, which have been shared on the internet. Do you have a picture to share?

The best #poinciana I have seen this year. Photo taken today at Wynnum. Can anyone beat this photo? Tag @daleysfruit as I would love to see. Usually only part of the tree flowers.
