Every year, between the months of August and September, Curitiba is colored yellow. It is the time of flowering of the yellow-ipê, a tree widely used in the urban afforestation of the city.
The ipe is spread throughout almost all of Brazil. There are several species and their flowers can have different colors: yellow, purple, pink – even white. The yellow-ipê flower is considered the symbol flower of Brazil. The large trees lose all their leaves and are covered by flowers, in bunches, in a bright yellow that stands out in the landscape even from a distance.
In the capital of Paraná, the ipê flowers are so appreciated by the population that, in 2010, readers […] elected the ipê blossom as one of the seven wonders of Curitiba.
