i like flowers a lot. on Thursday and on all the remaining days of the week.
This lovely orchid above and below was a gift from a friend and is called "child of the air" or "foxtail orchid" and is a member of the Aerides family of orchids. It only blooms once a year and its in August i can take in its sweet fragrance. Ain't Nature grand!!

Night Blooming Cereus
This loquat against the sky caught my eye.
It is very orangey and very bitter!
I like very much to walk about and see these wonderful plants and flowers and leaves and drink in their fragrances. While i was observing the Night Blooming Cereus this morning, i saw bees tickling the tiny filaments while gathering pollen!

You are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. Thank you for sharing some of it with us
I was lucky enough to see a night blooming cereus bloom here in my SIL's greenhouse nearly 30 years ago. It was quite a reason for a party! To be surrounded daily by such delicate blooms would be such an event in itself. Visiting here has always been an occasion for me to stop and smell the flowers, and be still. Thank you for sharing your enchanted world.
