@Giles absolutely correct, my brown thumb is evident in everything I say and do.

This orchid, Schomburgkia undulata, is common in my area. They are generally yellow/rust, orange at times and magenta/purple occasionally. This one grows in my backyard.

Exploring closeup pics with my Iphone (thanks to @Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot ’s Iphone info). Took a couple of more detailed pics.

@motojobobo I had to convert your images from .dng to .jpg s the forum SW does not know what a .dng is.

I used this for future reference:

Then I cut and pasted the images because in their native .jpg, the files were too large....

@mclaincausey - can't believe how grown up Hattie is, she is BEAUTIFUL (must take after her Mum, hahahaha). Lovely young lady with lovely flowers - thank you. Sending love back from Guernsey across the oceans to Colorado

@Madame-Buttonfly So nice to hear from you. We twins are doing well. Remember the twins that gave you that big hug at Shady Maple. They are now 91 years old.

Giving Paula / @Madame-Buttonfly some butterfly cheer.

This tree, alcornoque (Tabebuia aurea) is truly spectacular when in full bloom. Flowers only last between 3 and 8 days as it tends to be very windy this time of year.

Couldn’t possibly imagine a better parking spot for my Toyota FJ.

Riding the bike between Cafayate and Salta I was awestruck by this flowerbed right by the road. Appeared to be an abandoned house but these lilies sure looked upbeat.

@motojobobo wow those are incredibly beautiful

[motojobobo]

Happy you agree with me @Oaktavia !
Definitely worth slowing down, pulling off the road, U—turning, and getting those pics!

[Giles]

Absolutely stunning

Good morning @Madame-Buttonfly AkA Paula.

Spring time cheer for P / @Madame-Buttonfly
