Tecoma tree
Tecoma trees along Jalan Pinang Tunggal and Jalan Paya Keladi in Kepala Batas were also in full bloom with white and pink flowers in the shade of cherry blossoms hanging on trees along the roads. Although an annual phenomena, motorists would still stop to take photos of the flowers dropping from the trees and carpeting the ground below them. Meanwhile, on the island, the Tecoma trees can be spotted at the Bayan Lepas industrial area, along the Sungai Nibong highway, in the compound of Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) and along Jalan Mahsuri in Bayan Baru.
