TABEBUIA ARGENTEA

They planted rows and rows of these trees along the highways of Bangkok and at this time of the year, we saw most of them in bloom.

These photos of the trees I took in a side street is not the best representative of the spectacular blooms along the highways because there were only a few bunches of the flowers here whereas the others were at least 50% covered with flowers. Together with the Golden Shower (Cassia fistula) planted alternately with it, yellow is the in colour of the moment or day!

Hope the few ones I planted in Silver Garden would reward me with the some of these blooms soon.
