Unusual and charming flowering tree in Arippu


A closer look at the flower


I was recently at an old Portuguese Fort at what was Arippu on the North Western Coast about 25km north of the Wilpattu National Park western boundary. The three photos of the tree were taken there, but alas I would like someone to let me know what this tree is. It was really pretty and for my luck it happened to be in bloom at that time.
