El nombre indica que florece mucho y a menudo, múltiples = muchos y flora = flor.

Fue descripta en 1823.

Es una planta de hasta 2.5 m de altura, tiene un crecimiento compacto, vertical, arbustivo de menos de 80 cm de altura. En casa apenas llega a los cuarenta centímetros.

Tiene grandes racimos de flores blancas y amarillas de textura cerosa, nacarada….Y florece desde principios de primavera hasta finales de verano. Tiene hojas grandes, de color verde oscuro, coriáceas y cerosas. Hay algunos clones diferentes , con hojas verdes con solo unas pocas manchas, otros con hojas muy moteadas.Las flores también difieren en forma y color, las mia tiene manchas de veneno para hormigas...como estaba por llover , durante la noche, se llenaron la despensa, de epiphyllums y flores de hoya...las muy cretinas!!

Aquí se puede ver desde todos los ángulos, son flores estrelladas , muy peculiares…Con pétalos en forma de flecha, dobladas hacia atrás y parecen similares a una "estrella fugaz", tiene un centro amarronado formando ramos de hasta cuarenta flores, en teoría, porque nunca tuve la suerte de que los ramilletes sean tan grandes, solo lo he visto en fotografías.

Mi planta es muy pequeña y apenas me da ramilletes de 15 o 20 flores , pero no me quejo al contrario sé que le cuesta adaptarse a este clima. La he perdido dos inviernos, porque es muy sensible al frío ya que su origen es Tailandia, China, Malasia, Java, Indonesia y Filipinas.

Espero conservarla esta vez!!!

A rose is a woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae. There are over three hundred species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwestern Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Roses have acquired cultural significance in many societies. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. 47874

We have a lot of earth works going on at our property, and I am finding so many fascinating elements to document. This is an attachment for the excavator and a big pile of clay material we’re holding onto so that we can hopefully have enough to line a small dam!!

A Bronzed Drongo on a Moringa Oleifera tree growing in the backyard. It is a fast-growing, drought-resistant tree of the family Moringaceae, native to the Indian subcontinent. The bird is a resident in the forests of the Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It captures insects flying in the shade of the forest canopy by making aerial sallies from its prominent perch. Very similar to the other Drongos of the region but somewhat smaller and more compact with differences in the fork depth and the patterns of gloss on the feathers.

A rather large puddle at Kingswood Junction in Lapworth. I have resurrected my Sony Compact camera. Dislodging dust and resetting the mechanism has got it started again.

Amazing how the big the wings of the brown Pelican can fold down into a very compact flying torpedo. The brown pelican can dive head first into water to catch a meal. And seagulls often try to steal their catch out. I hope to catch the seagull getting away with the theft on camera soon.

The Laugavegur is a famous trekking route in South-West Iceland from the hot springs area of Landmannalaugar to the glacial valley of Þórsmörk . It is noted for the wide variety of landscapes on its 55 km (34 mi) path. The route is typically completed over 2–4 days with potential stops at the mountain huts at Hrafntinnusker, Álftavatn, Hvanngil and Emstrur. An ultramarathon is held on the route each July. It is possible to combine the trek with the Fimmvörðuháls route which goes over the pass from Þórsmörk to Skógar for an additional one or two days or an additional 25 km (16 mi). Landmannalaugar, Þórsmörk, and Skógar are all reachable by bus during the summer. A bus from Hella connects with Álftavatn once a day during the summer.

Macro Monday's and the theme of "Pins".

 

A straightforward photo this week. I decided to focus on the pins of a Compact Flash card reader, It was slightly easier than using my Nikon D200 as a subject where the pins are quite recessed inside the camera. The card reader also has a blue light that illuminates when it is plugged in.

 

Compact flash cards are the reason I mainly use a lead to connect the camera too my laptop. I had heard stories when I first got my Nikon D70 of the possibility of pins getting bent in the CF card port so to this day I am still in the habit of using a lead.

Made it back! Hello my friends : )

 

Little story behind this one...

 

One morning (while on holiday in the Greek island of Crete) I decided to wake very early in hopes of capturing some interesting morning shots.

After shooting a few pre-dawn beach photos, I walked towards an interesting rock-pier, but had to cross some hotel grounds to access it.

 

When walking past this pool, I glanced back and saw this mirrored reflection of the hotel in the water!

I desperately wanted to capture the moment (but didn't want to spend more than a minute here as I was trying to hurry and reach the rock-pier before sunrise) so I simply laid my camera down upon the edge of the pool and took 2 shots... and this was one of them : )

 

I was so surprised that this quick shot turned out at all, as it was taken during pre-dawn light and I didn't have time to make fine adjustments before moving on.

 

The blues you see in the sky (directly over the hotel) quickly changed (by the minute!) after this shot. The glow from the coming sunrise quickly affected it as I walked on towards the pier.

The blueness of the pool water also caught my attention... I think the reflection is very special near the pool ladder & lamp lights : )

 

This area was beautiful... so of course the title ( Vacation Blues ) has two meanings ; )

 

This is SOOC (straight out of camera), no cropping or color adjustments either.

That doesn't make it any more special, I simply tried to leave it the way I remembered it that early morning... very soft predawn blues with subtle hints in the sky of the coming glow : )

 

I thought it turned out pretty well, considering I was in such a hurry to carry on and make it to the next location.

(note: Taken with my Sony HX90V compact)

  

Thanks guys for taking a moment to have a look

...thought it was time to add more 'blues' to my photostream!

 

Hope you find something interesting or enjoyable here : )

Truly appreciate your support... wishing you a wonderful day ahead my friends!!!

  

p.s. Glad to be back!

I will slowly try to catch up with everyone during the coming days...
