Today's Flowers

My bromeliads are starting to flower...as they usually do at this time of the year!
Sorry I don't know the names of these blue and yellow flowers...or the orange one either.
I found a second nerine in the garden...good to know I have two of them!
A jacaranda ..flowering in March,,quite unusual!
And these trees are in flower. This is not a very good photo, but they are yellow flowers!

Nice to see your flowers since we are still in snow here. Hope your weather didn't get too bad. We're having a nice spell of springlike weather that we're enjoying very much.

Love your bromeliad. I've got quite a few in the garden, but not this one. I agree, very strange that the Jacaranda is flowering, very pretty though with that green foliage.

Marie-Louise Yes, I like this bromeliad, but I call this my common one. Quite ordinary when compered to a lot of the other more unusual ones. The lady over the road has a lot of them, so I will have to go and ask to take some photos!

Jeanne No, the weather hasn't been too bad yet. It is just starting to rain and get a little windy at times. They say the cyclone is stationary at the moment, and may weaken and move away from the coast. Some of us are praying that it will fill some dams and do some good inland, or else go and rain on Victoria, and other places that may need rain along the way. Here is hoping!

Annie I am vacationing in Arizona and see several of these flowers here in the desert! The Jacaranda tree in bloom takes my breath away!

You have a lot of lovely flowers in your garden! The yellow one is so unusual - I believe you can find the name on one of the other participants on Today's Flower! I discovered it yesterday, but I don't remember who it was.

Thanks for your nice comment when visiting med!

Beautiful flowers. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to post my Today's Flower's entry. *sigh*

I'll be replying your question about the tower shortly. Thanks for stopping by.

Au contraire (spelled wrong, for sure) - I love the composition of that last picture.

Of course your flowers are absolutely incredible, but I also like that last one, don't discount it.
