Royally hot, loud and proud

The Royal Poincianna (delonix regia) or Flamboyant for some of us, is showing off her dazzling beauty around the island. The season arrives very early this year, normally they bloom in July and August. Mine are slowly coming into bloom and won't be ready for another few weeks. For more hot loud and proud please visit a plant fanatic in Hawaii .

They say great minds think alike! Andrea, who lives in the Philippines has done a post about the same tree on her blog , under the same meme, hot loud and proud. I am linking her post to mine, so please go over to visit her at Andrea in this lifetime
Enjoy!!

Bloomin' Friday around Barbados

traffic stoppers Barbados black belly sheep

The delonix regia is still in bloom around the island. This morning I was on my way to Bridgetown our capital, I took several photos of this beautiful tree in bloom. There was a traffic stoppage on the west coast and had to wait a while. When I got to the see what was causing the problem I chuckled. There was this flock of our local black belly sheep grazing and trotting along the roadside. For more blooming Friday please take a stroll over to Katerina at roses and stuff .
