You won't find cherry blossoms in Malaysia, but you will get Tecoma trees that mimic them. The trumpet flowers even bloom around the same season as the cherry blossoms, Spring time in March in Japan. The colours of pink and white petals magically carpet the roads. Tecoma trees with the yellow flowers (Tecoma sans) have been linked with treating diabetes and digestive ailments. So there you go, Beauty with Medicinal Powers.

I like watching the world from the sidelines, curious students, birds, different cultures and the outdoors. I am having a challenging phase with my daughter MartianGirl, who has just entered the teenage zone, and a rabid dog Daemon K9. Now, Martian Girl has grown up to be Savvy K, Typhoon Tory is the new K9, and life has taken a different spin.

What beautiful photos. I love cherry blossom (one of my favourite trees ever) but these Tecoma trees are even prettier. Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI felt sure I could smell the Tecoma tree blossom. That's my lesson for the day as I'd never heard of them before. Fabulous pictures.
