These unusual looking flowers belong to the cannonball tree. Why you ask? There are fruits that look like cannonballs that will fall from the tree, which tends to grow to heights around 30 feet. There was a warning sign denoting the falling object hazard of these fruits, which could cause severe injury. There were a number of fallen fruit on the ground, and are about the size of a small cannonball. The flowers themselves are quite interesting to look at.

What an amazing and unique flower. I've never seen anything like it! You have all kinds of wonders in Hawaii. Thanks for giving us a lovely week of flowers!
(P.S. I like that you can see a bee in the picture too.)
