Mickey Mouse Flowers

I think these are Mickey Mouse flowers. I have some doubts because I have never seen a Mickey Mouse plant that is tall like a small tree. Usually they are shrubs not taller than me. These were seen at the Hortpark.

Ochna kirkii - Mickey Mouse flower

The flowers are yellow and if you only see the yellow flowers you will not think that this plant is not quite so extraordinary as its name suggests.

If you get to see the flowers in this state of development, you will begin to see the reason why it is called the Mickey Mouse flower. So cute!
