Aloe Bloom
(Click to enlarge to full size)
I love the fragile waxy bloom of the aloe. In a cluster, they look rather scraggly, but individually, I think they are exquisite–both in their variegated and subtle coloring and their simple fluted style. I was experimenting with placement. Chances are you’ll see a few other “posings” tomorrow!

Yolanda tells me she thinks this beautiful insect is a “Chinche” and that it has a strong odor. I took pictures of it for several minutes and even somehow disengaged the flower it was on so it fell to the ground and it still didn’t present its odor, so I can only guess it enjoyed the attention. This is one to enlarge. Just click on it! Oh, Of course the flower is the ubiquitous bougainvillea! I have them in every color and size all over my property!

Heliconia Embrace
I don’t know what vine this is that is twining so sensually around the heliconia flower, but I love the intimacy of its caress!!
