Tabebuia Rosea - known commonly as the Trumpet tree is commonly seen planted along roadsides, or in parks in Singapore. The tree can grow up to 35 meter tall, and has a large, broadly conical and shady crown. The tree got its name from its trumpet-shaped flowers.
Flowering seasons are usually around late March, April and around August. The flowers are five-petalled, trumpet-shaped and are either pink or white in colour. The bloomed flowers last for a couple of days before they start to wilt. When the flowers fall to the ground, they form a beautiful carpet of flowers around the tree.
We call it our Cherry Blossom Season. The trees, covered with blooms of pink, or white flowers are quite spectacular and quite a sight to behold. Very impressive indeed. So is watching the flowers spiralling down to the ground on a breezy day, forming a carpet of white and pink.
The following pictures are some of the flowering trumpet trees on my walk route.
The fallen flowers form a carpet of pink and white. This is just the beginning of the flowering season. So, the effect is still not very amazing. Give it a few more days. It will be an awesome sight to behold.
This is a relatively young tree planted not too long along. I am pleased to see it has started blooming.
The tree got its name from its trumpet shape flowers.
