The most beautiful of all orchid trees

🌺 The most beautiful of all orchid trees



Bauhinia blakeana - Hong Kong Orchid Tree:
"...Edging the golf course of the club was a glorious sweep of glowing purple. Even before I was near enough to identify the trees, the rich, heady perfume which filled the air told me they were Bauhinias. The sight left me breathless and it was then I realised how difficult was the attempt I was making to describe in mere words the trees I know better how to paint..." (D. Cowen, "Flowering trees and shrubs of India")
