    Well, I'm stumped. This (formerly half-dead) 10' tall tree is now producing massive clumps of yellow trumpet-shaped flowers and long beans that resemble runnerbeans. Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!

    Possibly Tabebuia? (that's just a guess, not at all certain!)

    It would be very cool if it was Pau D'arco; but it's still got all its leaves along with the flowers. I understand that one of the signs for Tabebuia is that they go deciduous when they bloom...
