The cannonball tree (Couroupita guianensis) is pretty distinctive. It sprouts pink or red flowers the length of its trunk and follows them with woody, round fruits that give the tree its name. This one was at Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden.

The flower is so pretty, what a surprise after seeing that cannonball! Even the fact that its trunk is covered in flowers makes it even more spectacular and, almost, alien

The profusion of flowers and fruits on the trunk are what make it so striking. Alien is a good word for it.
