Bauhinia Purpurea (Orchid Tree or Butterfly Tree)

I also like these trees. I planted two in front of my house, with flowers of pink and light pink colour. The main interesting characteristics of these trees are (a) the flowers are unique, (b) the leaves are in pairs and look like butterflies (c) the branches are soft and often hang down with flowers in front of you for you to see. I am going to plant more of these trees along the side of my farm pond. It will be nice to see many branches and flowers hanging down towards the water!
