I love the pointy edges and curly hairs that surround this shy brilliantly pink flower. Such a contrast to the large green upside-down umbrella leaves!

Pitcher plants are several different carnivorous plants which have modified leaves known as pitfall traps—a prey-trapping mechanism featuring a deep cavity filled with digestive liquid. The traps of "true" pitcher plants are formed by specialized leaves. The plants attract and drown their prey with nectar.

 

Carnivorous plants are plants that derive some or most of their nutrients from trapping and consuming animals or protozoans, typically insects and other arthropods. Carnivorous plants have adapted to grow in places where the soil is thin or poor in nutrients, especially nitrogen, such as acidic bogs. In 1875 Charles Darwin wrote Insectivorous Plants, the first well-known treatise on carnivorous plants.

The Dante B. Fascell Port of Miami, now stylized as PortMiami, is a seaport located in Biscayne Bay in Miami, Florida, United States. It is connected to Downtown Miami by Port Boulevard—a causeway over the Intracoastal Waterway—and to the neighboring Watson Island via the Port of Miami Tunnel. The port is located on Dodge Island, which is the combination of three historic islands (Dodge, Lummus and Sam's Islands) that have since been combined into one. It is named in honor of 19 term Florida Congressman Dante Fascell.

 

As of 2011, the Port of Miami accounts for 176,000 jobs and has an annual economic impact in Miami of $18 billion. It is the 11th largest cargo container port in the United States. In 2010, a record 4.33 million passengers traveled through the Port of Miami.

"Contemplaría más amaneceres, si tuviera otra vez la vida por delante". Jorge Luis Borges.

 

Manolo, tu siempre dices que los Amaneceres y Atardeceres son un regalo de nuestro Creador. Que todos los dias son diferentes y que no nos cuestan nada.

Ese dia fui testigo de un atardecer precioso y solo pensaba en tus sabias palabras.

 

Esta belleza es toda tuya!
