Good morning Friends ~ We are under a wind advisory with winds at 20-30 mph gusting to 40 mph and at 10:11 EST it is 59. It's been gray, but the sun is poking out from behind clouds at the moment. Nice. I need to get outside for a bit to get some walking in, even if it's only around the property.
I've been working on editing more photos taken the last few days.
Below was the sunrise on Sunday morning.
This is a hibiscus called 'Diva'.
Ground orchid blooms. I bought this plant last year I think, at a new nursery not far from me.
Next is a lovely hibiscus shrub that thrives with neglect.
I love this ground cover, called 'Spanish Shawl', (Heterocentron elegans) related to Princess Flower, (Tibouchina urvilleana). I bought a pot of this at a yard sale many years ago. The lady didn't know what it was. I found out what it was from a you-tube video, not because I was looking for it, they just mentioned this plant and showed it. It spreads like crazy, but I don't mind this one bit.
Here is another ground cover, Tradescantia. I've had three different kinds of this, solid green, purple and zebra
This is a close up with my new macro lens.
In the same family as 'Spiderwort'.
Ok, that's it for today. It is now a little after 2 p.m. EST and the sun is shining brightly. Still windy, temp is 68.
Thanks again for visiting.
