SUMMER FLOWERS IN DECEMBER


Dragon flowers usually bloom in late spring and in the summer... but these bold fellows on my balcony are presenting me with a second, very late bloom, and with a late feeling of summer! A sweet patch of color right in the middle of December! Of course, given the low temperatures, it takes quite a long time for each flower to fully open (the purple variety has just started to bloom), but on the other hand they last very long! :)

Dearest Anna,
About your previous post, you for sure are as good a German teacher as you would be an English teacher! Always lovely reading here.
What a bonus you got on your balcony! Lovely surprise and those are little wonders from nature...
Enjoy!
