The Poppy is an angiosperm or flowering plant of the family Papaveraceae. Ornamental poppies are grown for their colourful flowers; some varieties of poppy are used as food, whilst other varieties produce the powerful medicinal alkaloid opium which has been used since ancient times to create analgesic and narcotic medicinal and recreational drugs. Following the trench warfare of the 1st World War which took place in the poppy fields of Flanders, red poppies have become a symbol of remembrance of soldiers who have died during wartime.
Poppy flowers have 4 to 6 petals, many stamens forming a conspicuous whorl in the centre of the flower and an ovary consisting of from 2 to many fused carpels. Poppies can grow to be over 4 feet tall, and 6 inches across. The petals are showy, may be of almost any colour and some have markings. The petals are crumpled in the bud and as blooming finishes; the petals often lie flat before falling away. The poppy will become dormant after blooming. Poppies are in full bloom late spring to early summer.

From my collection
Jazmín paraguayo (Brunfelsia australis)
Y el barrio empieza a llenarse de flores, colores y aromas!!!!
Familia: Solanáceas.
Género: Brunfelsia, género de arbustos que se cultivan en jardinería por sus características flores que cambian de color desde el primer día que abren y los días sucesivos. Son sensibles a las heladas. Requieren temperaturas mínimas entre 10-13 ºC. Las plantas del género Brunfelsia, contienen alcaloides venenosos.
Especie: Angiosperma, plantas que producen flores y frutos con semillas.
Origen: América del Sur (Paraguay).
Magnitud: de 1° a 2° magnitud (arbustos de más de 2 metros de altura). De forma globosa y de crecimiento medio a lento.
Follaje: semi persistente. Hojas simples y coriáceas.
Floración: produce una fragante floración que para algunas personas puede resultar un perfume empalagante. Floración por oxidación -cambian de color- al abrirse son violáceas, luego pasan al azul claro y finalmente al blanco. Puede dar una segunda floración a finales del invierno o comienzos del verano, siendo su principal momento de floración la primavera. Flores simples.
Exposición solar: pleno sol o media sombra.
Clima: templado, muy sensible a las bajas temperaturas y las heladas.
Suelo: no es exigente, aunque prefiere suelos ricos en humus y bien drenados. No tolera encharcamientos.
Plagas & Enfermedades: puede sufrir el ataque de hormigas y mosca blanca.
Propagación: el Jazmín paraguayo se propaga mediante esquejes tiernos o verdes, desde comienzos de la primavera y principios de verano. El esqueje ha de tener entre 4 y 5 cm. de longitud y un par de hojas. Recortar las hojas inferiores del esqueje para facilitar al plantar en el sustrato y las hojas que quedan cortarlas por la mitad para reducir la pérdida de humedad. El sustrato ha de ser una mezcla suelta y muy bien drenado en la base del recipiente.
Poda: post floración, para estimular la ramificación.
Usos y valor ornamental: como ejemplar aislado, sus principal característica es el cambio del color de su floración que va de la gama de los celestes al blanco.
Variedades: Brunfelsia americana, Brunfelsia pauciflora, Brunfelsia isola, Brunfelsia pausiflora “Grand”.
Nota: las plantas del género Brunfelsia, contienen alcaloides venenosos, especialmente en sus frutos bacciformes, como también en flores y semillas. Pueden resultar venenosos, provocando la muerte en perros y gatos. Planta tóxica para animales.

Water lilies are a well studied clade of plants because their large flowers with multiple unspecialized parts were initially considered to represent the floral pattern of the earliest flowering plants, and later genetic studies confirmed their evolutionary position as basal angiosperms. Analyses of floral morphology and molecular characteristics and comparisons with a sister taxon, the family Cabombaceae, indicate, however, that the flowers of extant water lilies with the most floral parts are more derived than the genera with fewer floral parts. Genera with more floral parts, Nuphar, Nymphaea, Victoria, have a beetle pollination syndrome, while genera with fewer parts are pollinated by flies or bees, or are self- or wind-pollinated Thus, the large number of relatively unspecialized floral organs in the Nymphaeaceae is not an ancestral condition for the clade.

Photographed the Bitter Orange Tree off one of the nature trails located in the Colt Creek State Park located in the City of Lakeland in Polk County Florida U.S.A
Bitter orange, sour orange, Seville orange, bigarade orange,
or marmalade orange is in a narrow sense the citrus tree Citrus × aurantium[a] and its fruit. It is native to Southeast Asia and has been spread by humans to many parts of the world. It is probably a cross between the pomelo, Citrus maxima, and the mandarin orange, Citrus reticulata.
It was introduced to Florida and the Bahamas from Spain and
wild trees are found near small streams in generally secluded and wooded areas.
Citrus × aurantium can be identified through its orange fruit with a distinctly bitter or sour taste. The tree has alternate simple leaves and thorns on its petiole.

Nymphaeaceae /ˌnɪmfiːˈeɪsiː/ is a family of flowering plants. Members of this family are commonly called water lilies and live as rhizomatous aquatic herbs in temperate and tropical climates around the world. The family contains eight large-flowered genera with about 70 species. The genus Nymphaea contains about 35 species in the Northern Hemisphere. The genus Victoria contains two species of giant water lilies endemic to South America. Water lilies are rooted in soil in bodies of water, with leaves and flowers floating on the surface. The leaves are round, with a radial notch in Nymphaea and Nuphar, but fully circular in Victoria.
Water lilies are a well studied clade of plants because their large flowers with multiple unspecialized parts were initially considered to represent the floral pattern of the earliest flowering plants, and later genetic studies confirmed their evolutionary position as basal angiosperms.

Inside the tree, hidden from the outside, is a beautiful microcosm of colour and life. You can't see it in this photo because they're so small and fast-moving, but the tree had dozens of Hummingbirds flitting back and forth within it. I've never seen so many Hummingbirds in one natural place before.

The plants known as epiphyllum hybrids, epiphyllums, epicacti or just epis, widely grown for their flowers, are artificial hybrids of species within the group of cacti placed in the Tribe Hylocereeae, particularly species of Disocactus, Pseudorhipsalis and Selenicereus. In spite of the common name, Epiphyllum species are less often involved. The parent species from which epiphyllums were bred are different in appearance and habit from most cacti. They are found in the tropical forests of Central America where they grow as climbers or on trees as epiphytes. They have leafless (or apparently leafless) flattened stems which act as the plant's photosynthetic organs. Relatively large flowers are borne on the sides of the stems; in many species they open at night.
Hybrids between Disocactus and Epiphyllum have been called ×Disophyllum Innes. This name is sometimes incorrectly used for the group as a whole.
The Epiphyllum Society of America (the International Registration Authority for hybrids of the Tribe Hylocereeae) maintains a list of epiphyllum hybrids (and Hylocereeae species) which contained over 7,000 names in 1996.

A close-up view of the very top flower on the orchid from the previous shot.
We had seen this orchid very early on in the trip but on subsequent walks down the Medieval path, we did not notice it again until near the end of the visit, by which time more of the flowers had opened including this one.
