Oroxylum flowers supposed to have 5 stamens which are nicely seen
here.
Somehow when I checked my earlier collection I have a photograph of
the
flower taken from a tree in Pune city which is showing 8 stamens. Any
idea
what can the reason be?

Hi,
My trees were also flowering last Sunday. Sending a few photographs [the fallen flowers are from a previous year]. Have seen colour variations in the fallen flowers but never actually noticed [or looked for] more than 5 stamens.
Please also check this link for some of my past photographs :
and also the archives of this group for my posts related to this tree [Seed dispersal & 'Pseudo-vivipary'].
With regards,
