I love these little buds that look like a bunch of ducks or a gaggle of geese in a row.

Shaving Brush Bloom: FOTD, Dec 8, 2019

I have driven under the huge tree that sits in front of Pasiano’s house thousands of times over the past 18 years and only today did I notice that it is a shaving brush tree! One of my favorite blooms and the only one I’d seen before was in La Ribera in Baja California. I stopped the car, backed up and got out to take a few shots. Amazing what we can overlook so close to home.

Purple Wing Vine: FOTD Dec 4, 2019

Click on photos to enlarge.

 

This is the only two-petal flower I’ve ever seen. I love the three red hearts at its center. I believe it is a purple wing vine and I’m dying to get a cutting or seeds. Need to see how it replicates. My friend Glen spotted it in the outside courtyard of the cat shelter! Lots of cute kittens as well. And nine adorable puppies!!! Dare I?

I had this photo on my screen to post it and inadvertently took a photo of it. I know it is weird, but I just love this image!

Here is a different image of the buds.
