Hibiscus and Hopper: FOTD Aug 24, 2022

The new (within the past year) hibiscus bush has six blooms on it!  Even more beautiful in closeup, except for one factor! They must taste as good as they look. This little muncher was only 1/2 inch long, but when I put my finger out hoping he’d crawl aboard, he must have jumped 7 feet in the air! As good in his leaps as in his chomps.

White Dahlia: FOTD, Aug 21, 2022

I’ve never seen a flower like this before. So beautiful in its unfolding. Is it a chrysanthemum? A large white marigold?  I’m waiting to be taught. It was very large, like a mum. Yay!! Within minutes, John Hric identified it as a dahlia. Thanks, John.

Purple Golden Dewdrop (Duranta) : FOTD Aug 19, 2022

This beautiful little tree has already filled in the space vacated by the Royal Poinciana I had to have removed. It isn’t very tall but spills out into the entire empty space left at the entrance of my house. Thanks, nature, for filling in the gaps. But, once again I need help. I planted this years ago but it has always been a bit smothered out by the other trees and I can’t for the life of me remember the name of it. Can anyone help? The flowers are 1/2 inch wide. Thanks to Nesfelico, Sam and Dennyho for identifying this little tree for me!

Egg Carton Flower: FOTD Aug 12, 2022

 

I was so busy during art camp that this was the only photo I was able to take!! This is one young man’s egg carton flower.  Very colorful! The plate is not part of the flower, by the way. Just something to carry it home on.
