Okay, so if you have something against flowers, then you have been fore-warned...

Yup, this post will be filled... in fact, one of those irritatingly over-flowing with flowers posts! Don't say I didn't warn you?! 馃槃馃尲馃尲馃尲

Everyone loves flowers, don't they?
Are there even people who dislike flowers?

Who knows?!!

Anyway, with everything happening around the world right now, allow me to spread a lil flower cheer around. Not as if we in the tropics have that many flowers as the temperate climates, but this is a small collection I met in a flower garden whilst on my Cameron's Trail...

(Yeah, yeah, I'm still hoarding some of the ton of shots I have from that same one trip. Well, no more trips for awhile, so I gotta make these last! 馃槈)

A two-toned Gerbera daisy
These are usually rather pretty
And this was no exception
Quite an unusual colour, I thought...
so that's what we're starting off with!

A bud
A yellow bud
Looking like a periscope!
Ahoy there...
Anyone there?



DSC03199b.jpg

Classic red
Arrogant and elegantly proud

This is what that bud above would end up looking like...
Gorgeous and brilliant!

Anyone can tell me if this is a variant of lavender?
We were at a lavender farm which also had a cool range of other flowers... so I kinda just went around guessing if all the purple bunches were lavenders....
or not!
The farm wasn't big on labels or signs....

This one is... I think
Quite the classic-looking lavender... I think



DSC03157b.jpg

A blue-r tone lavender?

Side attraction...
I always love these wheat-like wild grass(?)
Looking rather gloomy here in moody weather
Somehow the light seems to suit it!



DSC03217b.jpg

They also had some produce for sale there
Chilies!
Very different variety from the ones I'm used to...



DSC03215b.jpg

Pumpkins, anyone?



DSC03220b-1.jpg

Couldn't resist this pale sweet Gerbera...
Okay, this was to remind me that the metal racks holding these Gerbera plants sheltered more plants underneath them...



DSC03222b.jpg

Good use of valuable space, don't you think...



DSC03225b.jpg

Protected under the racks...
Catching patches of pale sunlight



DSC03223b.jpg

Yup, tons of healthy mint growing under the racks too!



DSC03279b.jpg

Alongside, some 'underdogs' as I like to call them
Poor small tiny flowers that many don't notice



DSC03263b.jpg

These however were 'loud'...
with the contrasting colours of white and red



DSC03276b.jpg

Experimenting my camera skills on more of these...



DSC03272b.jpg


DSC03320b.jpg

Finally, a water maiden catches our attention
to a lily pond



DSC03254b.jpg

And a full blown waterlily
