Hi @elizabethbit ... yes, also love it :) I don't know her really name, but is a kind of Silk floss trees.
Seems like some defense to protect their flowers and fruits :)
I have a little dog, so, all days I walk/run a little with him :)
He helps me to keep in form and make daily good steps :)

Interesting tree! Yes, pets can be a huge motivator as they do need to be walked, right?! Take care and keep on steppin' @marfonso!
