Mild climate and agreeable temperature have turned Xishuangbanna in southwest China's Yunnan Province into a kingdom of countless plant species where flowers of different shapes and colors bloom all year long.
Today, we continue the compilations of flowers that have bloomed each month throughout this year at Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanic Garden.
Here is our November collection. Also, you may not want to miss the collection of December blossoms.
