Most unusual for the shore of Lake Michigan. Since it is way to hot to work in the Gardens at Waters East, it is a good time to catch up on your Blog and other Blogs I am following. the Golden Shower tree is really very beautiful.. It would look so nice in my ASian Garden, except for the fact it is way too cold here in Winter. Today with all the heat I am sure it would be doing well! Your photos are very nice, enjoyed them much.

I have ammended it in my post. <br /><br />Andrea, I delighted to know that you have planted these trees. I took the above photographs on 15 March 2011 but had no time to post it to my blog until now. Yes, I did see your beautiful post titled, 'Summer Outpours' on 16 May 2011.

Those plants in the university are flowering also even when already old. Ours get so vegetative and big so we have to prune them every year. Even the branches get very very tall, unlike in other areas. I guess they should be planted in less nitrogenous or poor soils. Did you see my post on it maybe 2 weeks ago?Andreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06044386271018560595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660561043857404056.post-62410700861243414302011-06-08T12:26:27.336+08:002011-06-08T12:26:27.336+08:00Hi Autumn Belle,

Honestly if you have not mentioned PaSung, Bananaz would not have any slightest idea where all these nice 'diamonds' came from. Lovely shots and awesome flowers oh love them all. The A-bo-le or the Pudding Pipe Tree reminds me of Avatar. How do you find out all the names of the flowers and with so many version of Thai & Taiwanese etc. Done your homework pretty well. tQ for the sunshine & flowers showers.
