Bougainvillea: FOTD June 27, 2023
Hard to believe, but yes, this is the flower of a bougainvillea in my front entrance. Lovely in macro.

Plumeria: For FOTD June 26, 2023
Not all plumerias have a scent. Some don’t smell at all until picked and floated in water, when they have a mild scent. I am so happy that my beautiful plumeria tree is of this scentless variety, since I am allergic to their scent. Needless to say, I never pluck them and float them in water, but since I can see the tree from my writing desk, living room, terrace and hammock, there is no need. I can enjoy their view with flowers still intact!

Hibiscus for Cee’s FOTD June 23, 2023
When I stopped to take a photo of this flower on the way out of my friend’s house, she told me I had taken a photo of this same flower as a bud the last time I visited–which had been perhaps a year before. Obviously, not the exact same flower, but a flower on the same bush. I think it is a hibiscus, but I don’t see the usual stamen and pistils. What do you think?

Hibiscus: FOTD June 22, 2023
I went out to photograph flowers and discovered that Pasiano has trimmed every single flower off every bush and vine in my front garden. He did not, however, bother to trim off all the dead leaves, so I ended up using the past hour to make a start at that. This is a flower I photographed before the desecration but hadn’t posted yet! I know the rainy season will bring more flowers, but it seems as though the trimming always happens right when everything is its most lush.
