Zeroing in: Hibiscus, Flower of the Day, Apr 18, 2018

IMG_9486 copyIMG_9486My backyard had become a bit of a jungle.  The men came and trimmed the palms and cut the pistachio tree in the background of this photo way back.  Sort of sad right now, but really opened up the view of the lake. In this photo taken a couple of weeks ago, the tree furnishes a lush backdrop to the profiles of these twin hibiscuses.

Dearly Departed: Flower of the Day, Apr 16, 2018

 

This is a bloom on my favorite giant copa de oro vine that blew over in its huge pot and died a week or so ago. Much missed.

R.I.P. Copa de Oro: Flower of the Day, Apr 11, 2018

This is another shot of the copa de oro vine that perished when the pot it was in tipped over in a windstorm and the roots were ripped up from where they’d grown through the pot. It was a mammoth vine. R.I.P. I’ll miss its view from my bed! Without it I’ll be looking at the ugly solar collector for the water heater instead!

Flower of the Day: Copa de Oro

Sadly, the tall timber bamboo that this vine was growing over tipped over in its pot  due to a strong wind a few nights ago and it killed the vine.  Not a flower left!  Hopefully it didn’t kill the main trunk, but right now the entire vine is shriveled down to what looks like a dry golden haystack.
