ALBERO CORALLO - CORAL TREE


I have done this sketch in a garden in Rome - Villa Aldobrandini.
This tree is very spectacular, it has red flowers and his scientific name is  Erythrina crista-galli, but in Italy it is known as "Albero corallo" like the marine organism .
It is native of tropicals countries, Brazil and Argentina

    What interesting sketch pages. This is a new plant for me. It would be quite a treat to see one in real life too. In the meantime I'll enjoy your sketches.
