Copa de Oro: Flower of the Day

Copa de Oro means Cup of Gold, Zeroing in, it’s easy to see why. These two popped up right outside my bedroom door to welcome me home. Click on any photo to enlarge all.

 

 

Hide and Go Seek

A few days ago I published a photo of a poinsettia and asked you to find the little bug hiding on the flower.  A few people have mentioned not being able to find it, so here is an enlargement, a bit grainy, but hope you can see it now.  Then go back to the original photo HERE and hopefully, you’ll see it.  Let me know! He was a tiny one. I was surprised to find him there, too.

This closeup was actually taken months ago in Mexico, but couldn’t resist using it as it goes so well with Cee’s flower of the day.

You can’t beat this combination of orange and purple.

 

You must see Cee’s flower HERE.

Pests: Flower of the Day, Oct 18, 2017

IMG_0265

These pesky little flowers are taking over my yard.  I had to build a patio over one patch of ground they’d infested.  It was the only way to get rid of them. They are sorta pretty closeup and much enlarged, but still, a pest is a pest.
