Can’t believe this nice view can be seen in Penang. What a lucky day! Great colour too!

How wonderful if this beautiful scenery can be seen everyday and everywhere in Penang. These flowers keep falling from the trees even though it was not a windy day. Cars parked under the trees were covered by all these yellow flowers.

Trying to be creative, bro asked me to take a photo with flowers falling from the trees. The artificial one. He will drop the tiny flowers in front of my camera. Creative?

While adjusting my camera, the flowers keep falling in front me. I asked my bro to wait as the camera is not ready yet. I thought my brother was pouring the flowers in front of the camera. But no, he hasn’t.

Epiphyllum oxypetalum

The name of this plant is Epiphyllum oxypetalum. I don’t know how to pronounce it either.

What is so special about this flower? The flowers only bloom at night and last only one single night. I snapped this photo around 1am.

This plant is from the cactus family and have strong smell. I don’t like the smell. Amazing?

Trees

See this wonderful scene? Where is this place? This nice scene definitely will help to cheer up your day. Recently you can see these trees with pink and white flowers blooming at some locations of Prai and Penang island. Tabebuia Rosea is the name of the tree. Last week, there were even more flowers on the trees and with thick layers of flowers on the ground.

Today I decided to go for trees hunting. The flowers are still there but not as many as last week due to a few days of heavy rain. After I took these photos, I noticed others stopped their cars and snapped some photos too.

Do you know George Town is among the top 10 locations in Asia where Europeans prefer to work and live in? I think these trees play one of the important roles too.
