Loving the plants

The Drunken Sailor climbing the Jackfruit tree

 Back again in Bintulu after a 10 days holiday
 in Kuching (14-24 April).  So the first thing I did on a Saturday morning at the park is to take some new pictures of what's new.  Talk about plantlife.  The Drunken Sailor has managed to climb the Jackfruit tree reasonably well.  The Jering tree is flowering while another one has just started to show its beautiful maroon flushes.  The white flowers of the Tabebuia alba stood in sharp contrast to the overall greenery.  Moving about the park, I saw the Hippeastrum hybrid have produced many tulip-like flowers and the Pinang Lakka is everyday showing off its deep orange leaf sheath, Saturday included.  Such is the pleasure of just having a brief Saturday morning walk in the park.
