I am still in Bangalore, Karnataka, India - my fifth day with a dear blogging
friend and his family who have made my stay in India's "Silicon Valley" such a
wonderful experience. I have been delighted with the beautiful flowers in this
garden city of India, especially with one spectacular yellow flowering tree.
I still do not know its name - my slow internet has not allowed me to easily
access the excellent "Flowers of India" website so, perhaps, one of my
followers might be able to tell me what this tree is.
It is blooming in great profusion right now and I love the brilliant yellow
flowers. These pictures were taken on the grounds of St. Philomena's
Church in Mysore.

Hi Carmen! Beautiful photos! The tree is called an Angel's Trumpet, I think. There was a small tree with similar white flowers arching over the gate of my old studio in San Francisco. The flowers were so fragrant. I loved walking under that tree to get to the gate. So happy you are having such a wonderful time in India. Kris.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like the pictures...the yellow blossoms are so beautiful and, seeing the trees in the distance as we drove south in India, filled me with delight.
Deletebeautiful! a feast for the eyes :-)
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments exactly, Dinah....the trees are so beautiful against a brilliant blue sky. I've never seen them anywhere else in my travels about the world and they filled me with such joy.
