Some Plants

Passiflora edulis, Passion Fruit with a nectaring bee.
Caesalpinia pulcherrima, Pride of Barbados.  This is Gretchen's favorite.

Galphimia glauca, or Mexican Gold Bush.  Another common name is the Shower of Gold.

Absolutely gorgeous pictures of those very beautiful flowers and shrubs, Gretchen. I love flowers and just was at the Huntington Library here in Pasadena today. There was a whole building devoted to a show on roses, mostly paintings. You could publish a book of your lovely photos.
