    Cotton Bud Ratchaphruek

    Ages 2+ 

    Come celebrate AAPI Month by painting the national flower and national tree of Thailand! The ratchaphruek is referred to as the “golden shower / rain tree” because of its beautiful cascading golden flowers, a color which represents unity, harmony and glory. In Thai, the ratchaphruek means “the royal tree” and is associated with the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej, who was born in Cambridge, Massachusetts!
