Shortly after I took this photo, the wind came up and blew this huge hibiscus to the ground!

FOTD: Kalanchoe, May 10, 2023
This is the actual size of the kalanchoe flowers that I showed yesterday. They look very different, right? The two flowers to the right are different.I would guess zinnias? They are new, too. Morrie decided to stick is ear in the photo so you could more easily determine the size of the flowers. Thanks, Morrie, for helping me to clarify.

I just planted these flowers. believe they are kalanchoes, but if so they are the most unusually colored ones I’ve ever seen.

Camaron Flower FOTD May 2, 2023
For Cee’s FOTD
A shrimp is a camaron in Spanish. I don’t know why they think this flower looks like a shrimp, but as in most things, I accede to local custom. I’ve said before that this is one of the hardest flowers for me to shoot. I’ve tried many times. This one works better than most. I’ll keep trying.
Happy May Day!!! Firecracker Flowers, FOTD May 1, 2023
Firecrackerplant. This is the hardest flower to photograph in my garden. I simply can’t get detail even at a close range.
Since it is May Day—once one of my very favorite holidays–I’m including some links to past May Days: This One with photos of May Baskets I made for friends in 2017 and This One entitled “Scissors, Tissue Paper and General MacArthur” written in 2013 about May Baskets made when I was a little girl.
