Mexican Petunia–my fast-spreading little garden pest!  Here covering the bushes by my pool.

Bougainvillea: FOTD June 27, 2023

Hard to believe, but yes, this is the flower of a bougainvillea in my front entrance. Lovely in macro.

Plumeria: For FOTD June 26, 2023

Not all plumerias have a scent. Some don’t smell at all until picked and floated in water, when they have a mild scent. I am so happy that my beautiful plumeria tree is of this scentless variety, since I am allergic to their scent. Needless to say, I never pluck them and float them in water, but since I can see the tree from my writing desk, living room, terrace and hammock, there is no need. I can enjoy their view with flowers still intact!

Hibiscus for Cee’s FOTD June 23, 2023

 

When I stopped to take a photo of this flower on the way out of my friend’s house, she told me I had taken a photo of this same flower as a bud the last time I visited–which had been perhaps a year before.  Obviously, not the exact same flower, but a flower on the same bush. I think it is a hibiscus, but I don’t see the usual stamen and pistils. What do you think?
