With so few flowers to photograph here, I’m still relying on photos I took on Valentine’s day.

Orchid.
Have you ever seen a blue orchid? The flower vendor swore it was its natural color.

Euphorbia Milii: Flower of the Day
Heliconia
This arrangement was done inside a coconut by a flower vendor who sets up in the street right across from the house I rent at the beach. I bought one to take to the the hostess of a party but had to buy one for myself as well. I added the tiny coconut “plug” to hide the watering hole.

Fuchsia
I had run down the street for two blocks in a long beach coverup quickly thrown over my nightgown when I heard the crazy rodeo parade approaching my house at 11 o’clock at night. The night before it had gone on from about 7:30 to at least 2 a.m. when I went to bed. I’d somehow missed it going by when I was dancing at Palapa Joe’s so I didn’t want to miss it tonight. I was walking back home when I spied these little flowers and I kept bending lower to get them in more detail. When I looked up I saw this BIG guy who must have been the cook in the palapa restaurant I was standing in front of, taking the picture. He was sitting in a straight chair in the parking lot—probably out to catch a spare breeze as the night was still hot. “You can see beauty in a single flower?” he asked me. When I nodded my head and said, “Mmhmm,” he just smiled and nodded his head. Such a nice little interchange and nice final human contact for the day.
More about my day will follow.

Canna Lilies
I actually found this photo while hunting for a fern picture. Guess this qualifies as both.
