The blooms on this particular hibiscus bush all have this stone-washed look.

Bougainvillea: Over the Wall, FOTD Oct 29, 2023
Click on photos to enlarge.
A bougainvillea vine lush from recent rains hangs out over the wall into my lower garden as though to catch a glimpse of the just-completed Quetzalcoatl sculpture down below. It’s been two years now since I started working on this reclamation from dumping ground weed patch to community garden. More to come. And yes, I have decided on a name. A secret for now.

Marigolds: FOTD Oct 27, 2023
Oops. Late today. I have an excuse!!! Tell you about it later. Marigolds are the traditional flower for Day of the Dead in Mexico. All along the road between Ajijic and San Juan there are roadside vendors, with trucks filled with them in front of the pantheons (graveyards.) The trail of petals from the flowers in front of my altar to the front door is a road inviting spirits of loved ones to visit but then to depart again. Thus it leads both up to the altar and afterwards, back out through the front door. My house has had a number of visits by spirits over the past 22 years. If you check back through my blogs, you’ll hear their stories.

Wild White Flour for FOTD, Oct 26, 2023
Forgive Forgottenman, Cee. He noticed I hadn’t published a flower for today so he set this up on my site! I’ll atone by publishing a real one as welll! All of the below is what Forgottenman posted on my blog.
Giggling as I draft this. Yeah, WAY outta bounds! Still…
Do or not do with it as you will or won’t.
