Flame of the forest & all that…
Well, to understand the phrase ‘a riot of colours’ you will have to wait for the next Lalbagh flower show.
Until then, feast your eyes on the spectacular colours of 2 of the most popular flowering trees of Bangalore. The gulmohar & the haldi gulmohar. C.K Meena goes green on the exotic trees in Bangalore here.
:)
I love these blossoms! The red and yellow colours really brighten up the whole city. It’s a joy just going for a drive (if you ignore the traffic :) and seeing these gulmohar trees blossoming everywhere!
@Anita: These pics were taken on Sunday around noon. I sense that the traffic is much lesser and people are at their Sunday best too – more relaxed and courteous! Perhaps a long Sunday drive by you around town is overdue??
Cheers,
Ravi
