Episode 144 - Bauhinia Blakeana (II)


These photos were taken at the podium of the Haking Wong Building of HKU earlier today.

It is flowering time for the Bauhinia Blakeanas. These Hong Kong Orchid Trees blossom in around October and November each year. Apart from HKU, there are quite a number of them in the Botanical Garden and the Harcourt Garden.

On my way home, I inspected the Bauhinia Blakeana which flowered in May this year. The tree is growing well but I cannot find one single flower bud on it.

You get it here, you lose it there.
