Here is yet another stage of the flowers on the mystery tree, all stages present at the same time. Click to enlarge photos. Go HERE to see a later stage of the blooms.



See Cee’s gorgeous hydrangeas HERE.
I don’t know what bush/tree this was at the carwash, but it was exhibiting every stage of blooming at the same time—from first buds to flowers to these amazing clusters of berries. I took seventeen shots, and got a clean car to boot! I’ll show other stages later.

In Mexico, Christmas is celebrated from December 12th to January 6th. That is why the gorgeous tree at the Nueva Posada hotel in Ajijic was still up when I went there to read poetry yesterday. So glad as I forgot my camera the last time I was there. This is the display beneath the tree. I’ll post the tree on Thursday.
Summer Somewhere: Bougainvillea and Papyrus
(Taken yesterday afternoon in my garden.)

Happy New Year, flower lovers. Mexicans call this an obelisco. I call it a hibiscus.. and beautiful. You’ve seen this same flower from two other angles. I’ll give it a rest for awhile, although I have a dozen more. New Year’s resolution.

These bougainvilleas seem determined to build a wall straight up, like Jack’s bean stalk.
Don’t miss out on seeing Cee’s Lotus photo.

In Mexico, poinsettias are a fixture year round.
