> This is not unusual.
> Basically as the name suggests this tree is non native(Native of tropical
> Africa). The flowering season may vary.
> Secondly many trees show flowering and at the same time the fruits from
> flowers of earlier season are still seen hanging on the tree. You can
> observe this phenomenon at present on Albizia trees showing flowers as well
> as pods.
> Anyway beautiful pictures of Sausage tree.
