Tabebuia pallida
Truly a stunningly beautiful tree when in bloom. The Pink Tabebuia is a small stature tree also known as the “Carib Queen” which depicts its origin from the Caribbean. During most of the year the trees bear very characteristic broad leaflets that are pointed at the tip and curved inwards. Prior to bursting into bloom, the tree sheds all its leaves. The flowers are deep pink with a pale-yellow center and are borne in clusters.
