Roses at the Pioneer Women's Hall of Fame, Alice Springs

These blooms were at the Pioneer Women's Hall of Fame in Alice Springs when I visited in August, 2015.

More on the Tulips

The tulips are opening up.  Beautiful.

Tulips

I purchased a bunch of tulips yesterday.  To me it is a luxury - as money is tight with me, but I was tempted and gave in.
There were five white tulips in the  nuch fo just under $A10.  Not too bad!!!

I am very pleased with the photos!!!

Flowers of the World

I visited this Florist Shop and Cafe, Flowers of the World in South Bank,  last week.  Oh, the amazing blooms inside.  I could have spent a fortune, but kept my hands away from my purse.

I was pleased to see one of my favourite flowers on the table.  I was there for a meeting so it (luckily) distracted me from spending money.

Some Flowers in the Village

One of my tasks as a Volunteer in the Historical Village is to take photos - and I often do a wander around the huge Village property with my camera focusing on the flowers.

Here are some from a couple of days ago.

I love the Gerberas.  They are the type that people grow in their home gardens, as opposed to the slightly different flowers of the commercial growers.  I should know, as I once was a commercial grower.

One of the Gerbera Gardens in the Village - almost opposite the Redhall Cafe and entry.

The Zygocactus in the Rain forest is certainly in full flower.  There are several of them - different colours.

Orchids - May 2015

I love May each year as the Cattleya Orchids come into flower.  I did "break some up" so have a couple of pots that are still trying to overcome the trauma they suffered, but I have three huge pots with stunning flowers.  In the three pots I have 10 stunning flowers.

I love them.  (I have had a pot of white ones flower in March too!!)
