I thought a friend was kidding me when she told me about a tree called a Sausage Tree at the Calgary Zoo and sent me a few photos of the unusual flowers : ) I'd never heard of this kind of tree before! So, of course, I had to go and check it out. The flowers are enormous and so unusual! From my archives, taken on 30 September 2011. Sausage Tree flower / Kigelia africana. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kigelia
