TABEBUIA ROSEA

I hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to put this up because the flowering Tecomas are a relatively common sight in our urban landscapes.

Anyway, I am doing it now because I remembered lots of visitors and staff pausing in their tracks when they emerged from the Bayfront MRT exit and whipped out their cameras of camera phones to capture this magnificent phenomenon of the flowering Tecomas on a daily basis from end July to August. This is the welcome greeting one received upon stepping foot into the garden. What is notable was also the fact that the flowers bloomed in the form of various shades of pink and a white.
