some flowers

a few flowers from one of my morning walks this week...the red one on the left is from the poinciana...a great spreading tree...it is only in later life that I have realized and noticed the one odd white speckled leaf that it has!
and a trip to the hairdresser, and a small delay, led to my taking photos in the tiny little park there....


petunias and nasturtium....

the delicate little white flower above I know not the real name...the lady down the road used to call them Aunty Dot's weed! And certainly they look like they may grow prolifically in the right conditions!
some more of the daylilies...
lovely colors, and they remind me of my mother...she was very keen on daylilies...and had many lovely ones in her gardens towards the end of her life!


and these little pink and white pentas were quite lovely too!

bright cheerful little white daisies..and dipladenias...

Quite a cheerful little spot really...which is what you will find if you go and click on the Today's Flowers button...and look at all the flowers from contributors from around the world...

I'm amazed that everything is blooming already! Isn't it mid to late spring? Whatever, the blossoms are gorgeous!
