TINY TRADESCANTIA FLOWER........EXPLORED #221


Originally uploaded by KTDEE.......back now and then

This tiny flower of the Tradescantia is not fully open yet. It is so small and barely 1cm in size which makes it so quite easy to miss. The green and cream striped foliage is so fresh looking as it sits on the windowsill.

While out for a walk I saw this water trail and it led me to the Lady in Red with her dog who had obviously been swimming in the streem.

UNICYCLE??????


I noticed this securely attached to the bicycle rack outside the supermarket about two weeks ago.I took my camera with me the other day fully expecting it to be gone, but no it was still there. I wonder why? Has it been in an accident and left there or was it vandalised?

Balancing Act


Taken in my husbands greenhouse. I thought it was amusing.

Cone

Another captured in the garden centre recently.

Veins

Taken at a garden centre recently.
I liked the leaf and flower together, the contrast of the beautiful and the damaged.
When I looked at in on the computer I noticed the veins in both.

A Touch of Yellow.

It was Pat's 80th Birthdaya few days ago so we had some friends in to celebrate it.
