Lovely Image of Flame Tree in Key West
This beautiful picture of the scarlet flowering Red Royal Poinciana tree in Key West, Florida, is a wonderful magnetic photo to keep on your refrigerator as a perfect souvenir from Florida. This rare tropical tree is not found in very many places in the U.S., and is an iconic image of lovely Key West, one of many spectacular sights around the country's southernmost city.
Key West is often nicknamed "Paradise, USA," a moniker that seems quite suitable when you are strolling along golden sand beaches in sight of the sparkling blue waters of the Atlantic Ocean, swaying palms, and the gorgeous Red Royal Poinciana tree. The historical Old Town district provides its own beautiful scenery with fantastic Victorian mansions such as the Southernmost Inn and the Little White House.
