Lucky you-- I've never seen a fully mature umbrella tree in person. How long did it take after you planted the first umbrella for it to flower like that?
There is a REAL umbrella tree in the courtyard outside my units. And it is currently in flower. The rainbow lorikeets perch up on the flower spikes having a good feed.

Unfortunately, Umbrella Trees are slow to flower and rarely present a full display unless tis raining cats and dogs.
It is common for the umbrella flowers to grow eyes?

They are carnivorous plants then? I can see how the brollies make effective traps.
You know, I really don't see a 'reason' in that picture at all...
Such a beautiful tree and 'fruits'!
Should we give it a scientific name - like...hum...rianalensis spokabrella ?
A very cool pic.
