I love ornamental kale, but would never eat it. It would feel like cannibalism! Click on first photo to enlarge all. I couldn’t choose just one!

Happy New Year, flower lovers. Mexicans call this an obelisco. I call it a hibiscus.. and beautiful. You’ve seen this same flower from two other angles. I’ll give it a rest for awhile, although I have a dozen more. New Year’s resolution.

These bougainvilleas seem determined to build a wall straight up, like Jack’s bean stalk.
Don’t miss out on seeing Cee’s Lotus photo.
Merry Christmas to one and all!!!

This lovely bloomed just in time to greet my friends who are visiting for Christmas:
Not quite fully opened today. Either it was at its prime yesterday, or the sun hasn’t hit it fully yet. Looks like a filly skirt!
