OUR WORLD



Spring's glorious moments:


 As I'd informed in a previous post, my cactus flowers were ruined by strong winds and a rain spell. Fortunately this threesome is the surprise element as they grew up as freaks. Cactus flowers are very delicate.They stay only for a few hours and wither away quickly in the sun. The charm they exude is worth waiting for, no matter how transient it is.

 These orange blooms on long central stems are the ones I look after. I love them as they stay intact for a couple of days and fill the space beautifully. These are perennials.
   The bougainvillea bush across our front yard(above) gives two colored blooms, white and pink. Its green fresh spread is soothing and  enlivening.


The rose bush above is from one of our neighbor's flowerbed.




Friends,welcome here and thanks for the support!
