When the drought is over and we've had some rain we get to feast our eyes on these signs of moisture. It's a surfeit of flowers and new leaves everywhere. No need to plan out beds or plant seeds like the cold weather, because what's already in the garden starts blooming. There are lilies, hibiscus,hydrangeas, magnolias and gardenias. The grass is green again.
Almost like a forest floor under the mahogany trees.
Delicate blooms of bougainvillea.
Heady and intoxicating, the fragrance of the magnolia blooms - alas, I can't capture that!
Gardenia - what I choose to call myself on this blog.
There are many fellow creatures celebrating life out there. I captured the most eye-catching of the lot.
I salute the Maker!!
Thank you to the person who planted these hydrangeas. They're pink and lilac in one border and blue in another.

Seeing and reading
Gardenia's insight
Wow, how stunning! I read somewhere that the colour of hydrangeas depends on the ph of the soil.
And a special bonus to read the H.Eckler (formerly known as the Heckler?)'s verse!
