National Tree of Thailand!

 

The golden shower tree... all blooming profusely at this time of year.

From Chinatown in BKK. Love them.

 

Chinese New Year circa. The folks spend a lot of money in HK, mainland and many places.

 

Orchids are difficult to grow. 

[Minnie the Minx]

That was from a trip to BKK around the flower markets. 

 

I have never had any success with orchids. It's really a throw away market in HK. I never got the mentality you throw things out.

 

That's my youngest in the same place mentioned above.

I recall a lot of little Thai kids and they are lovely around that time of the year, trying to sell flowers.

Taken at the Kings summer house garden up on Khao Khor, Phetchabun.

That's truly a brilliant a  moment in time, not staged.

I have no idea what these things are but they were trying to sell them to the tourists for a lot of money. 

 

They're actually real things in that BKK China market. Look like plastic. So we bought one and youngest actually tried to eat it..

Not sure what this bloomin lovely tree is, seen on Samui a couple of days ago.

Almost looks like flowering cherry, but not!

Is that a type of ornamental kale?

[samuijimmy]

Yep flowering Kale! ^^^

 

Another golden shower tree, interesting it seems to bloom across the country at the same time.

 

 

 

[Minnie the Minx]

Simply stunning those trees and the Aussie Wattle is the same.

Thanks mate.

 

How did you do that?

 

Downloaded to my computer and turned it in Preview ( a Mac thing!) and it flipped!  and then dragged it to replace ... had to delete the crooked one!

Now  I see there is still a problem viewing, see last comment looks like he's using an Ipad  / app  Can you see the image?

Yes I see the same on my iPhone using Tapatalk.

 

I see the image I posted in the previous post, but do not see yours.

 

I has to be a Tapatalk issue... need @Tech Doctor to have a look at the issue.

Also emoticons or smileys do not seem to be working on iPhone Tapatalk.

 

 

[samuijimmy]

Oh no!
