TERMINALIA MANTALY

This is a beautiful tree with distinct tiered layers and is often confused as the Bucidas buceras.

One simple distinguishing feature between the 2 are their flowers. The inflorescence of this tree species are typical of most Terminalia trees, as evident by the sprigs of creamy flowers.

These photos were taken on 3 Apr 10 at the River Galleria across North Boat Quay.
