So what follows is nothing more than a collection of buds and blooms as they open.....

Centaurea montana
Abutilon
Fuchsia magellanica
Clerodendrum ugandense
Cleome spinosa
Tibouchina urvilliana
Salvia patens
Polygala myrtifolia
Very nice shots. It certainly can be a dramatic time to photograph plants.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots.The buds look so mysterious. You have very unusual flowers. Gloriosa superba is a native wild flower of India , which flowers during the monsoons (June to September)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments.
ReplyDeleteLotusleaf - your comments on the Gloriosa are interesting, as the best results that I've had with this plant have been when I keep it a little on the dry side. It must be due to the fact that our summers are that bit cooler than its native habitat.
