For a change, I will not name this flower. It's not that I do not know its name. If someone would care to give me its name, I shall reveal more of its beauty in the form of a complete flower and more.

Bauhinia Purpurea, Orchid Tree
cecilia
Thank you Cecilia. It's definitely a flower of the Orchid tree. The botanical name is Bauhinia Blakeana from what I have found out from books and on the internet. The Bauhinia Purpurea is of a lighter colour. Whatever the name, these flowers are beautiful!
