WEEK 19 ~ Good Things Inside



Since it's actually trying to be spring here I couldn't think  of anything more appropriate for this weeks prompt than flower buds opening
My Daffodils (guess they are technically narcissus)
Does anyone know what this tree/flower is.. they were growing in Tenerife  the flower buds look like upside down bunches of bananas.

Great interpretation of the post this week. It is so much fun to watch a flower unfold from a bud.

Gorgeous photos! Can't help with the flowers, though - I know daffs and tulips but that's about it!

Your African Tulip Tree is lovely. I wonder if one would grow here. Thank goodness Spring is finally here!

Your floral shots get me so in the mood for Spring and Summer flowers. Although I have a black thumb, I sure appreciate green thumbs in others - which you sure have!
