it looked like the coronavirus. So it does. But beautiful, no?

I can’t remember ever seeing this lovely little white hibiscus with a blushing throat before, but there are two of them growing among the brighter coral ones on the wall between me and my neighbors. I’m wondering if I bought a new one and planted it there or is it just because I’m spending so much more time in my studio and hammock and so I’m noticing some things that have been there all along? I took this photo from the hammock. It is so different from the showier and larger varieties but I love it’s simple fragile beauty.

Each stage of a flower opening has its own beauties. By tomorrow, this hibiscus bloom should be opened fully. The next day, it may have fallen to the ground. (These photos were taken on the morning of July 19 but not blogged until the 20th at 2 a.m.) To see the same flowers ten hours later ( 24 hours after these photos were taken) go HERE.

I don’t see many dandelions in Mexico, but this one presented itself right beside my studio door. So easy to overlook, but so pretty close up. It obviously isn’t the first one to bloom, as is evidenced by the dandelion seed fuzz caught up behind it, but it is the first one I’ve noticed this year.
