Love. It is an emotion that moves and inspires us, whether towards your partner, your parents, siblings, your pet, your country and also one that can feel impossible to adequately express. We just feel it and most of the time it is reciprocated. For a better world, give love a chance!
▪Thank you very much for your visit and for taking your time to comment! Much appreciated!▪
If you don't, here is a hint: Calliandra haematocephala!
I saw it in a butterfly house I visited a few days ago. In my opinion, it's really photogenic :)
Both the white and the bright-blue forms of Clitoria ternatea are quite something to behold. One of their first describers was Georg Eberhard Rumphius (1627-1702) on the Maluku island of Ternate (www.flickr.com/photos/87453322@N00/4297609644/in/photolis...). They're now all over the tropics and are often regarded - for example in Australia - as an environmental weed. It crowds out native plants and by its tenacious vines 'strangles' just about anything in its path.
Here in the the pretty Titiwangsa Park of Kuala Lumpur it's set to take over the colorful hedges of innocent Red Powder Puff, Calliandra haematocephala.

Powder Puff Tree the common name for Calliandra Haematocephala, the most widely cultivated of the 150 calliandra species.
It belongs to the Fabaceae family, which people typically call the pea or bean family. Other Fabaceae members include Erythrina (coral tree), perennial sweet pea, and Dwarf Poinciana tree.
It’s native to Bolivia, but this evergreen flowering shrub is grown throughout the world for its bright winter blooms.
The White Powder Puff flower is one of the few I've seen where it is thoroughly enjoyed in all of it's stages.
Many different types of insects were feasting on the buds, the flower in full bloom, and the wilted bloom. A wonderful winter flower to keep the bees and insects well-fed and energized :)
HBBBT! :)

HWW! :)
We have a good sized storm coming in---I'll be back on later to catch up.... :)
Also known as "Pink Powder Puff". Seen on my walk today.
The photo is very small because it had a long and tiring journey to get to Flickr. The SD card is damaged - or at least it cannot be read by anything other than my camera. So, what to do? It was getting late and I didn't want to go out to take another photo, although in hindsight that would have been the smart thing to do.
I could connect the camera wirelessly to my phone using Nikon's Snapbridge. So, I did and moved the photo to the phone. Then I tried to edit it in Snapseed, but it couldn't deal with RAW files. So cleverly I tried to email it to myself, but the file was too large, so I gave permission to send a large version, which turned out to be very small.
It got to my computer, Photoshop changed it to a jpeg for Flickr, which is when I realized it was tiny. But, as they say, it is what it is :-)
And after posting it, I noticed I had lost most of my EXIF data, which gave me an uploaded date, rather than a taken on date. I fixed it.
2 White Powder Puff flowers, and a handful of bees--- and a wasp.
It's a very beautiful flower, and obviously a sweet one. :)

Hundreds of insects were having a feast on the beautiful White Powder Puff bushes at the Florida Botanical Gardens.
Usually you don't see them all 'hanging out' together, but there was plenty to go around, and this wasp, honey bee, and black Carpenter Bee were enjoying the bounty together.
They're very wise........

If anyone knows the ID on the wasp, I'd appreciate the info :)
HWW! :)

SN/NC: Calliandra haematocephala or Tweediei, Fabaceae Family
This is a tree Native to Borneo, red powder puff is an evergreen shrub or small tree. It was formerly included in the legume or pea family, but has recently been shifted into the mimosa family. It typically grows 10-15’ tall in its native habitat and is a very popular flowering shrub in central and southern Florida where it will survive year-round in the ground. Bipinnately compound leaves (5-10 pairs of leaflets per pinna) open copper-pink but mature to dark green. Raspberry-like flower buds open to hemispherical red powder puff flower heads (to 3” across) consisting of masses of scarlet stamens. Blooms primarily in fall and winter, but sporadic additional bloom may occur throughout the rest of the year. Variations in flower color exist, with some pink and white forms being available. Calliandra comes from the Greek words kallos meaning beauty and andros meaning stamen. Picture taken behind the Dom Bosco Chapel in modern Brasilia.
Questo è un albero originario del Borneo, il piumino rosso è un arbusto sempreverde o un piccolo albero. Precedentemente era incluso nella famiglia dei legumi o dei piselli, ma recentemente è stato spostato nella famiglia delle mimose. In genere cresce di 10-15 piedi nel suo habitat naturale ed è un arbusto da fiore molto popolare nella Florida centrale e meridionale, dove sopravviverà tutto l'anno nel terreno. Foglie composte bipennalmente (5-10 paia di foglioline per padiglione auricolare) si aprono di colore rosa rame ma diventano verdi scuro. Boccioli di fiori simili a lamponi si aprono su capolini rossi semisferici (fino a 3 pollici di diametro) costituiti da masse di stami scarlatti. Fiorisce principalmente in autunno e in inverno, ma durante il resto dell'anno può verificarsi una fioritura aggiuntiva sporadica. Esistono variazioni nel colore dei fiori, con alcune forme rosa e bianche disponibili. Calliandra deriva dalle parole greche kallos che significa bellezza e andros che significa stame. La foto è stata scattata dietro la Cappella Dom Bosco nella moderna Brasilia.
Dies ist ein in Borneo beheimateter Baum. Roter Puderquast ist ein immergrüner Strauch oder kleiner Baum. Es war früher in der Familie der Hülsenfrüchte oder Erbsen enthalten, wurde aber kürzlich in die Familie der Mimosen überführt. Es wächst normalerweise 10-15 Zoll hoch in seinem natürlichen Lebensraum und ist ein sehr beliebter blühender Strauch in Zentral- und Südflorida, wo es das ganze Jahr über im Boden überlebt. Zweifach zusammengesetzte Blätter (5-10 Paar Blättchen pro Ohrmuschel) öffnen sich kupferrosa, reifen aber bis dunkelgrün. Himbeerartige Blütenknospen öffnen sich zu halbkugelförmigen roten Puderquastenblütenköpfen (bis 3 Zoll Durchmesser), die aus Massen scharlachroter Staubblätter bestehen. Blüht hauptsächlich im Herbst und Winter, aber im weiteren Verlauf des Jahres kann es sporadisch zu zusätzlichen Blüten kommen. Es gibt Variationen in der Blütenfarbe, wobei einige rosa und weiße Formen verfügbar sind. Calliandra kommt von den griechischen Wörtern kallos für Schönheit und andros für Staubblatt.

Escovinha, e diversos outros nomes como Caliandra mesmo. Muito bonito ver uma arvore cheia deste espanadores em miniatura. Dizem que é originaria de Bornéu. Outros dizem que é da Bolivia.

Ele normalmente cresce de 10-15 pés de altura em seu habitat nativo e é um arbusto florido muito popular no centro e sul da Flórida, onde sobrevive o ano todo no solo. Folhas compostas bipinaticamente (5-10 pares de folíolos por pinna) abrem-se em rosa-cobre, mas amadurecem em verde escuro. Botões de flores semelhantes a framboesas se abrem em cabeças de flores em forma de pó vermelho hemisférico (até 3 ”de diâmetro) consistindo de massas de estames escarlates. Floresce principalmente no outono e inverno, mas uma floração adicional esporádica pode ocorrer durante o resto do ano. Existem variações na cor das flores, com algumas formas rosa e brancas disponíveis. Calliandra vem das palavras gregas kallos que significam beleza e andros que significa estame.

This plant is native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. The flowers are produced in cylindrical or globose inflorescences and have numerous long slender stamens which give rise to the common names powder-puff, powder puff plant, and fairy duster. These plants flower all year round, but the best blooming is in spring and summer. They can be easily pruned.
I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoyed taking them. :o)
