Photo 106
On Street Maria Louisa, very near where the street passes beneath "Tsar Boris III
Obedinetel", we found this tree full of eye-catching purple blossoms in late April.
The "Royal Empress" (real name "Royal Paulownia") tree is named after the daughter
of a Russian czar. Bulgaria's Tsar Boris was responsible for importing a large quantity of
trees and shrubbery to Bulgaria during his reign. Many of these have been propogated in Plovdiv.
