They’re in bloom everywhere
and they’re pink. I was driving and the
street was covered with these flowers in Bonasse Village, Cedros, then I saw
this tree up the hill in front of the old government home that housed doctors
for the hospital in Cedros. You can see a hint of the house through the foliage. I thought the sky provided a nice backdrop.
They’re known natively as
the “poui” tree and are of the Handroanthus family which stemmed from the
Tabebuia genus of flowering plants in the family Bignoniaceae.
