No Sunil, it is not gulmohar...amaltās in Hindi

check this link.....it has only yellow colour flowers, some derivatives too. Red colour flowers never......
Those red flowers blossom at March-April-May months. So, we indicate them as symbol of parting of college days/college love :(

But where is yellow colour flower??
I have seen a yellow flower tree similar to Gulmohar, but it is not our 'Konna'.
This tree is not commonly seen in northern states...I believe so.
Though these two plants come under same family, Fabacaea...they are entirely different, in flower shape, colour, odour, size etc. Only one similarity is there - both trees blossom in Summer in Kerala

Cassia fistula is our state flower....also national flower of Thailand

Ya...I have told you earlier...in Kerala, we can see gulmohar both in red and yellow colours. But it is entirely different from Cassia.....tree structure itself.
Sunil...can you clear me one doubt.
Here, during those months, trees/flowers similar to gulmohar but pink-2-3 varieties also blossom. Really beautiful. What is its name in Hindi or English? They also belong to gulmohar category??????? I think so, because tree structure and also flower structure have close similarities......colour is in dark pink shades...2 or 3 variations.
Do you have any idea.....???
I want its pictures...but can't get it since I don't know its name. :)
