Neem tree buds on the morning of the run
The run itself...
This tiny flower, no larger than my thumbnail, had dropped off a tree and almost formed a carpet along the sidewalk. I tried digging through 'flowers of india' to identify the flower/ tree but in vain; if you know what it is , please do leave a comment.
Update - thank you College Gardener! it is most likely the wrightia tinctoria.

Could the little white flower be some sort of Wrightia? Perhaps Wrightia tinctoria?
yes I think you are right, the pictures of the leaves I have seem to confirm it. thnk you!
Wow!. Whoever looks at this photographs , will agree Chennai is beautiful. I have seen canopy on roads, in Chennai. I have seen green cover in certain roads. I think Chennai is more greener than Hyderabad. Lovely trees which flower on various season. Funny part is , they do not dry out., or shed too much leaves?
