#ThursdayTreeLove – 86

ThursdayTreeLove-86

This picture is tagged ‘Same time, last year’ on my archives. It was a hot April day and VT and I were off to meet our friends. Right around this patch, we spoke of how hot Bangalore had turned. And then I spotted this tree. I smiled, VT slowed and I clicked this tree. The Gulmohar is an evergreen tree in India and which ever city I go, I spot one. Do you?


Thursday Tree love is a photo feature hosted on this blog on every 2nd and 4th Thursday of a month. The next edition will go live on May 14 2020. If you would like to play along, post a picture of a tree on your blog and link it back to this post.

If you don’t see the pingback, please leave a link to your post in my comments section. Please make sure that your post’s link is showing up on this latest edition. I will link your posts on my blog in the next edition and spread some love. Let’s come together to appreciate the beautiful nature around us.

  1. Dear Parul,

    So sorry could not link up with my earth day pictures as I had intended to. I’m smiling looking at this post of yours, as it’s synchronously similar, in some ways to the post idea I was toying with this morning, for #WW and #TTL.
    🙂

    Hope you are well dearest and keeping your spirits high.

    Love and light!

  2. Nice photo of Gulmohar tree. I remember we used to call them as May flowers as they were seen blooming especially during the April-May months in Bengaluru. As children, we used to stick the clayx part of the flowers which were green outside and red inside on our finger tips and play ghost, showing the claw-like red sharp fingers to other kids.

    1. I loved that personal story you shared. Beautiful! And May flower sounds like a logical name. We used to call it Gulmohar and hence that’s the name I know. Thank you Anajna for joining and sharing this!
