It's still 8 o' clock here in South Africa . I haven't missed macro monday yet.
inside an ice berg rose
inside a johannesburger rose (a Ludwigs)
marigold
I'm getting better at macro shots with my Nikon , you can see the pollen inside this arum
I cropped the top picture from this one
wild orchids .
These are a favorite for landscapers there is rarely a garden done at an office block that does not have these.
The marco really shows it;s true beauty.
The dark spots and the fluffy rich yellow
and the delicate blue
just perfect
a shy gloden oldie rose. I've had so many blooms on this rose already.
This lady loves the sun.
And the sun loves her.
looks like an orange bursting open.
the flower from the pomergrante
The articles on the internet says it should fruit after 3 years.. this is my third year
Sadly , some of the flowers have already fallen
but there is still hope for those hanging in.
I think it's a yellow wild orchid .. the plant's leaves look very similiar , but the yellow does not flower as abundantly as the white.
And it has these attractive dark spots on it
white Alysum .
When you find the right spot for this ground cover , then they will easily self seed.
Just be sure to shake the bush well when your pulling it out.
And to end .. this is a flower that will eventually open ..
Anyone ever seen this before ?
I will try and pop a progressive picture of this guy in each post until it opens.
Did I say it was 8 ? It's now almost 9 .. blogging must be fun
the time is flying
happy blogging
