There are two trees of this species in Avenida Anaga, in Santa Cruz de Tenerife.

I agree with Jerry. The flower color can vary from near-white to rather dark rose, but is usually a pale pink. It is a species that does best in warm-humid subtropics to tropics; not typically happy in Mediterranean climates.

Do these trees set seed there?

SoCal and SoFla; zone varies by location.

I see you are doubtlessly right. I just browsed the web and noticed that the other specimen growing by, the one I did not picture, is shown as the file-picture for Tabebuia heterophyla in arbolesornamentales.com, which is the most popular website about ornamental trees in Spanish. Check: http://www.arbolesornamentales.com/Tabebuiaheterophylla.htm

Yes, they set lots of seedpods.
