Spring was somewhat delayed this year. Going by the blooms I normally see, spring was delayed by about two weeks this year versus last year.

These are really amazing pictures. You have done a great job in capturing them.
Love magnolias. Reminds me of the Masters golf tounament.
Maybe you can help me identify this flower i took yesterday.
It is really colorful and I have never seen anything like it.
This morning I searched through hundreds of Florida flowers. I think you photographed it in Florida. After looking through hundreds of photos I did not see anything like it.
Have a great day!
Steem on,

Yes. They grow all over south florida. I will find out the name and let you know

You may want to show the picture to a local plant nursery in your area.
The weekend is almost here!
