Description
I spotted this tree near the supermarket a few weeks ago. I have walked past this tree at least once a week for 12 years. I have never seen these red berries before and 2 weeks later they were all gone. The tree is about 20 feet (6 meters) high. Each of the berry branches are about a foot (30 cm) long. The berries could be tiny flowers. Zoom will help.
Thanks to Brigitte (Blondeblurr) for the ID of Umbrella tree native to tropical rainforests in Australia (eastern Queensland and the Northern Territory), New Guinea and Java.
Thanks for stopping by, taking a look and for all your previous favs and comments. They are very much appreciated.

purdy tree? Great caoture NFC! sorry
Much like the cactus kind and they do not flower every year for me. But name me as unknown. It is a beautiful fruit tree. Congratulations and many thanks for sharing ((5 + +)) Un peu comme les cactus genre et ils ne fleurissent pas à chaque année pour moi . Mais le nom m'est comme inconnu . C'est un très bel arbre fruitier . Bravo et mille mercis de partager ((5++))
It's pretty but I have no idea mate.
I don't know the name of this beauty, but I do know I like it. :)))) I love all of the beautiful berries. :))))) Most sweet lighting and love the berries on top against the blue sky. :)))) Most excellent capture my friend. :)))))) Thank you for sharing all of the beauty you see. :))))) Carry A Smile In Your Heart :))))) I can ask my husband if he knows the name of this. :)))))))
Beautiful photo Dana, excellent colors and details, well done!
This is really very easy, because I have got one in my garden, it's an Umbrella tree (Schefflera actinophylla or Brassaia actinophylla), grows in our North Queensland rainforests up to 14-16m high and in Hawaii it's also known as Octopus tree. Our multicoloured Lorikeet's or also known as Rozella's love those red flowering berries and get literally 'drunk' on them, hanging even upside on the branches and screeching every morning and afternoon ... it's quite a happy,noisy and maddening concert at times! Hope this helps Dana, BB
That is a cool one!!
really cool and beautiful !!never seen before this too !!nice dedi!
They look like the type of blossoms that turn into berries fairly quickly! Nice shot!
A great shot of this lovely tree Dana and well done Brgitte.
Beautiful, dear Dana. Never seen anything like this before. Hugs for all day. Di. xx
What a wonderful plant! I'm glad Brigitte identified it..I am one of those irritating folk who need to know the names of plants etc.
What a lovely tree with a lovely name!! xx

Great capture Dana of this very beautiful tree!!
I've never seen one of these trees before. :) Cool looking! Excellent capture! :)

Wonderful tree! Excellent capture! :)
What an odd tree. From this distance those berry spines look like pipe cleaners in this stellar capture of the arboreal wonder, Dana.
I've never seen one of these either, they would make a great sight with those fans of berries. An excellent capture. I love seeing new plants so thank you for posting.
