FROM neighbourhoods to industrial areas and highways, Tecoma trees lining the streets are in full bloom after the recent rainfall.

The Tecoma trees, also known as ‘Malaysian Sakura trees’, are a sight to behold especially along Tun Dr Lim Chong Eu Expressway, Penang Botanic Gardens and the Bayan Lepas industrial area on the island.
