Chinese Fringe Tree “April Snow” Blooming in Chung Hsing LakeApr. 22, 2024

The Chinese fringe tree in Chung Hsing Lake is in full bloom. The blooming tree covered with a sea of white, dainty flowers, as if it was snowing in April, has attracted crowds of photo takers over the past few days. The tree’s vitality returned according to the diagnosis of Jenn-Wen Huang, a Distinguished Professor in the Department of Plant Pathology, in spite of a late bloom last year. This year, Professor Huang and the Office of General Affairs continued to monitor the flowering status of the Chinese fringe tree, with Professor Huang taking immediate remedial actions as soon as flowering delay was detected. Thanks to the meticulous care of Mr. Chun-Yu Chen who is in charge of landscape maintenance, the fringe tree in Chung Hsing Lake finally reached full bloom on April 15.
