PTEROSPERMUM ACERIFOLIUM

This is a beautiful big-leaved tree planted at Singapore Botanic Garden's roundabout leading to the Visitor's Centre or Raffles Building.

These photos were taken on 28 Jan 10. The big leaves with silverish undersides contrast very well with the small-leaved yellow rain tree in the background of the last photo.

Silver and gold for the upcoming CNY, anyone?
