This beauties botanic name is #Schotiabrachypetala, the #weepingboerbean.
It’s from the legume ‘family’.
It’s native to #Africa, south of the #Zambezi River, where it occurs at middle altitudes.
This gorgeous thing’s is an ornamental tree (no surprise!) grown in warmer regions and is known for its nectar that drips from its flowers, which attracts a range of birds and insects.
This grows proudly in #Melbourne’s #botanicgardens.
