Love the polka dots on these hydrangeas just snapped at a local outdoor restaurant today.

Flowers of the Day, Apr 23, 2017: Tabachine and Bougainvillea

Here is my backyard and studio, taken yesterday, plus a closeup of the tabachine.  You’ve seen plenty of closeups of the bougainvillea in the past.  Click on either photo to enlarge both.  it’s hard to remember what season you are in in Mexico as there is always something blooming.  The bougainvillea bloom year round and the tabachine a couple of times a year.  I just heard the first rainbirds (actually an insect–cicadas) this week so the rainy season will soon be upon us.  Then those hills behind my studio will be verdant green.

Flower of the Day: Another Audacious Heliconia

IMG_3159

There are so many varieties of Heliconia and some of them are often confused with Birds of Paradise, but each of the flowers in this photo, other than the red ginger, is a heliconia. From my friend’s garden in La Manzanilla, Mexico.

For Cee’s daily flower prompt.

Heliconia, Flower of the Day, Apr 6, 2017

IMG_3160 (1)

Love this more fragile red variety of heliconia in my friend’s garden in La Manz.  Home now where the jacarandas are in full bloom and I’m sneezing and hearing, sort of, through blocked ears.  They are beautiful, though.  Other than that, nice to be home.
