Still looking for the ID, tree in the Singapore Botanic Gardens with maroon hanging flowers, these kind of upright green seedpods with 5 segments, and the seedpods when opened become woody with a feathery kind of content (see picture below in comments)

I have no idea what this is. It is about 1/8" in diameter, and was sitting in an evergreen bush (you can gauge it's scale by the evergreen 'needle' in the foreground). There were a few around. A seedpod perhaps ?
This isn't an outtake for Assignment 52 -- On the street where you live, because this isn't on my street, but a few blocks away. But the attentiveness required for the assignment caused me to notice this, in the dreamy morning light.
