African Flora

I had taken some beautiful pictures of some of the flowering trees when they were in full bloom a few weeks ago... but then I lost my phone and lost all the photos that weren't backed up to cloud storage. Oh wells...


This is a Jacaranda tree. It comes in yellow:

It comes in purple:

And it comes in red:


When in full bloom, it looks like this:

This is a Frangipani tree, also called a Plumeria.


They come in many colors:

On one side of my compound, we have a whole wall of bougainvillea. Purple, dark pink, and red--I love it!


And then there's this lovely cactus-y thing that if  you let it grow can become a whole tree! We have this pot on our "front porch"
