Flowers and Trees

Abstract

The first things about Nairobi which impress most people are its colourful flowers and plants. Coming in from the airport along Uhuru Highway no one could fail to be impressed by the bougainvilleas, palms, cacti and other plants which make this major traffic artery and its roundabouts so attractive. This first impression that Kenya is a land of flowers is confirmed almost everywhere one goes. Throughout the country beautiful gardens and colourful flowers are to be seen everywhere.
