Focus on Flowers

I feel so fortunate to be just a short drive away from the amazing "Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden", home to so many exotic tropical plants. Walking through the garden is always an uplifting experience. The abundance of so many colorful flowers is a sight to be seen!  Below are a few of my favorites.


Giant Milkweed (Calotropis gigantus)

Passion Flower (Passiflora)

Jade Vine (Strongylodon macrobotrys)

Chalice Vine (Solandra maxima)

Flower of the Cannon Ball Tree (Couroupita guianensis)
