Alan,

I saw red ones when we travelled in Spain a couple of years ago. They were 
shrubs rather than trees, IIRC.

I Simply LOVE the Hotel Del Coronado.  One of the magical places of San
Diego.  My wife's uncle was a retired admiral and lived on the island a few
blocks from the hotel.  Until the pandemic, my wife's aunt gave
historical/cultural tours of the hotel and the surrounding neighborhood.

I also love Some like it Hot, which was filmed there.
