Question for Matt or person who knows
We keep on seeing small and large trees in the Valencia area with purple flowers on them. The flowers are in bunches of bluebell looking flowers but with much longer trumpets.
What are they called? How long do they flower?
Love to see them and want to impress the family by knowing what they are called.
Thanks
Rosemary

Nice pic, we have one in view from our balcony, but not as big or close as that one.

Better to look at from a distance in my opinion and let the local authority clean up the mess after they shed.

Don't put one anywhere near a swimming pool, or false peppers or bouganvilla, or anything really

They are gorgeous - do they grow all over Spain or just in certain areas??? Wouldnt mind one of those WHEN we finally get over there.
