Poui Season

Every year, from mid-March to Mid-February, people in Trinidad start to look out for Poui trees. The trees have bright yellow or pink blossoms, which bloom around this time and often create a carpet of blooms under the trees, creating spectacular sights for both locals and tourists alike. People often go 'hunting' for places where the Poui trees are in bloom to take pictures or just walk through, with some popular locations being the Queen's Park Savannah and Around Mount Hope (Eric Williams Medical Centre)See in picture below, Pink Poui tree in bloom near the Hilton Hotel on the Lady Young Road.
