Not a flower yet, but can’t resist showing these spidery little bromeliads that have colonized the bark of this tree. They do bloom, but the flowers are tiny and easily overlooked.

How do these bromeliads get up onto the electrical wires??? (Yes, it does have tiny blooms like little flags..pretty dried up on these plants.

They have sticky seeds that stick to the feet of birds.  Then when the birds perch on the wires, they leave the seeds behind to grow in their new home.
