Last year, this tree/shrub had tons of flowers on it, but they were mostly way high on the branches, so I had a hard time taking photos of them. Last fall, when the tree guys trimmed all of the palm trees, they also did a general clean up on all of the other trees and shrubs. This year, this one hasn't bloomed as much. I think it has to bloom on old wood. We have a couple of others that are like that. This morning, when I saw the light on these blossoms at a height that I could manage without a ladder, I was excited. I love the rich color against the dark background.
