Where do you see these red flowers? One thing that came to mind right away was the Framboyan tree.

Cause you are... but i'll forgive you since we talking about rulos after all. Yours sound like what we call a Jamaican rulo.

Like a common plantain, but short, fat, uncircumcised. How did that last adjective get there?
