'Tis the season...

The season of Malaysian sakura has arrived again, and the road to my office is again filled with pink petals, both on the trees and on the ground. However this morning I saw another kind of flower blooming in the park near the market. Lots of flowers have fallen to the ground too.

I picked an undamaged one to bring home:


I don't know what flower it is. When searching online for the name of the Malaysian sakura, they say it is called tecoma. When searching for tecoma, I actually find pictures of yellow flowers! However they look similar to the pink tecoma and not like this one. The petals of this flower are thicker, not as fine as those of the tecoma.

By the way, I found that this yellow flower has a pretty pleasant smell! Maybe I should have picked more and placed them in my car... maybe it could be a bit of an air freshener. (Or maybe it would stink instead. :P )
