<h2>A hint of Japan</h2>
<p>Pink trumpet trees growing along the Eastern Express Highway (near Vikhroli), which resemble Japan&rsquo;s famous cherry blossoms trees, definitely add a scenic quality to the journey of an every-day commuter. If you are taking this route, don&rsquo;t forget to look out of the window.</p>

<p>Nature lover and author Katie Bagli says that though she hasn&rsquo;t been to Sagar Upvan Colaba, BPT&rsquo;s botanical garden is home to a variety of flowering trees like tecoma, red silk cotton tree, white silk cotton, laburnums, lagerstroemia, undi, samudra phool and climbers like thunbergia. The trees flower during the months of April and May. Right now, she says, you&rsquo;ll see a profusion of golden copper pods on Adenwala Road. There&rsquo;s also a lone cannon ball tree flowering, gulmohar, and a white silk cotton tree. But, the diversity is lacking, and they are a few and far between.</p>
<h2>Bougainville heaven</h2>

<p>Yellow, pink, white&mdash; Bougainville of all kinds flower at this park in Malad, which is popular with early-morning fitness enthusiasts and young lovers. The park is a great place to find a spot under the shade, and just forget that you are in the city.</p>
<h2>Dahisar in pink</h2>

<p>Edlyn Cardoza, a resident of Dahisar shared the pictures of half-bloomed trees near Dahisar bridge under which the Mithi river flows. Three trees are situated on either side of the road. Below these trees, vegetable vendors and eateries set up their stalls.</p>

<p>If you are in Navi Mumbai, and want to take in some pink trumpets (Tabebuia Heterophylla), head to the Palm Beach Road, and sip takeaway coffee as you admire this giant tree, full of pink blossoms.</p><p>
