Blooming Friday- Colours of February

February is the month of transition in the tropics. Winter finally bids good bye and the short spring takes over. Some of the flowers start packing up, and some new flowers start appearing.
The sky blue flowers of the Plumbago have just started blooming. There is a wild white variety which grows wild in vacant plots.
The Crucifix orchid is putting out lots of buds now.


The orchid like flowers of the Water Hyacinth have started showing up. Perhaps they resent the restriction of the tub in which they are grown!

The last of the roses. With the days becoming hotter (it is already 33C in the shade) the roses are calling it a day.




The Barleria has also started packing up. It doesn't seem to like this year,s early summer.
Thanks to Katarina at Roses and Stuff for hosting Blooming Friday.
