Bangalore garden
Hi all.
I've read somewhere that the climate of Bangalore is pretty similar to Islamabad, so searched online for some inspiration. Stumbled upon a lovely blog which featured a beautiful old garden. Unfortunately, there were no names, or descriptions of the featured plants. If any if you can please name these two blooming beauties in the pics below. I love how they are giving the garden a very structured look. Thanks.

Re: Bangalore garden
Thank you Izhar. I'll try and find it here. Can anyone guide me as to which zone does Isb/Rwp area fall into? Someone once told me it's zone 10?

Re: Bangalore garden
The closest you can compare is karachi i guess since both have sub tropical climates being close to waters..

Re: Bangalore garden
Karachi is very different.... it is not sub-tropical.. it is arid, humidity fluctuates to great extent and there is no rain.... I have been to places in world which have same temperatures theoretically as of Karachi but the actual feel was very different..
