WW: Pink Hibiscus Flower at Longwood Gardens

Pink Hibiscus Photo


"No other place to go, I wanna get away, let's get away!
Sunshine in my eyes, and the flamenco in the skies
The only way, you'll ever know, is to go, is to go!"
- One More Minute by Authority Zero

This pink hibiscus flower transported my mind from Longwood Gardens to a tropical island.

    Beautiful flower Kristin. Hibiscus flowers do well here in Jamaica. I must get some for my garden. Once we had a Hibiscus that put forth flowers in two different colours - some pink and some white. Thanks for hosting.

    The hibiscus is our national flower. It's called Bunga Raya in Malay.
    You've captured it beautifully, Kristin!

    Man, I don't know where that transports me.... Oh, to heaven and back, I'd say. WOW! Thanks for thinking The Big Tree is wonderful. The home that has it is for sale and I am praying that the new owners don't cut it down!!!! You pray, too, okay? okay.

    Your flower photos are always so cheery. I'm simply hopping this afternoon. No WW post up. I'm finding it difficult to get into the groove. Yesterday, I had additional medical tests and I'm still worn out. Maybe I'll catch a wave of energy and will be able to post something later this week. I'll keep my fingers crossed. lol Have a good evening!

    Very pretty! Hibiscus always reminds me of summer. They are associated with freedom of expression too.

    I love hibiscus flowers, but those just won't grow in this hot dry desert that I live in. (I did not see your usually linky in your post)

The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.
