I found this flower at the altar in Baby's house. Somebody got them from the top of a tall tree in the neighborhood. Too bad I did not see the tree and too bad I did not get the name of this plant as well. One thing I know, it is absolutely gorgeous and rare! And the next time I go there I will find the tree and maybe ask the owner for the name of the tree and maybe some of the flowers as well! ;-)
My orangey blooms I share with Maia at MacroFlowersSaturday and for TodaysFlowers of Luiz, Denise, Laerte and Sandy! Have a happy weekend!
UPDATED: Bernie identified this flower as Spathodea Campanulata or African Tulip Tree

These are the flowers of Spathodea campanulata or more commonly known as the African Tulip Tree. They are such a distinctive colour and shape.
These are indeed stunning! I've never seen these blooms before.
This flower looks like a giant eating thing. Venus fly trap or something like that. Very unique, thanks for sharing.
This is gorgeous and very unique. Great shots!

What a wonderful shade of orange, it made me smile as soon as I saw your photos.
