These very pretty bulbs at church this morning! What a lovely idea! And a wonderful cream flower on this tree at the Mt Cootha Botanic Gardens yesterday. Just looked marvelous on the ground under the tree And this is the name of it, if anyone is interested! The crepe myrtle looked great at church this morning, I thought. The bauhinia is looking good against the frangipani next door. Time to get to and start cutting it back, I think! This white flower was on a vine down the road...don't know the name sorry, but they are quite striking. The flowers on the umbrella tree next door. And a little series of the yellow tree that is flowering all around here at the moment. It develops a pink flower with the seed inside. I stopped at the Murray Clewett wetlands on the way out of Toowoomba during the week. And caught this cute little mickey bird enjoying the tastes of the grevilleas. My yellow flowering tree is doing well....there are the little pinkish flowers coming on too... A strelitzia ...

The frangipani are doing a good job of cheering the place up around here. These are just some of the blooms I picked up off the ground! The buckinghamia or ivory curl, at the front gate has also been a picture, but won't last much longer! and there was a lovely crepe myrtle, or pride of India flowering away at church this morning...it looked quite a picture beside the wattle leaves!

To see more contributors to TODAY'S FLOWERS on a sunday night, please visit the link in my sidebar up there! oops..sorry...they wont be doing another for a week or so...but you could go and look at the christmas edition! Please excuse lack of commentary...I can't seem to get a cursor on my blog when writing them, ever since my son installed my new printer! I have to edit in HTML and then I don't know where to put the comment! (except when it is at the end like this)! If anyone can solve the problem for me, I would be very grateful. (Of course I should ask blogger first)!
