These night blooming water lilies open around eight o'clock at night and close around eleven o'clock the next morning. |
The pink pride of Barbados, I think this is the prettiest of them all.
Pink vervain or porterweed, this is one of the larval food plants of the buckeye butterfly. This shrub grows 6-8ft tall.
Malay apple or pommerac, the crop was so sparse this year that I didn't get one to eat.
Hello folks, it has been some time since I have posted, my sincere apologies to all. The rains are on schedule and even though it has been raining frequently, temperatures and humidity continue to be high. Still, there is an occasional breeze wafting through every now and then making life a bit more comfortable. Weeds, weeds are everywhere, so this weekend I will be very busy. Friends and volunteers are welcome, I will feed you, and this is a promise!
Sunset in Speightstown
Speightstown's jetty
Last Sunday, hubby and I had dinner at a little restaurant in Speightstown called Wave Rider. It was very inexpensive and the food was fair. However the ambience was cozy with an open vista to the ocean. I will give this place a 6 on the scale of 10. Wishing all gardeners around the globe a happy and peaceful weekend.
