Walking in the Garden

I went with a friend to see the doctor to keep her company and while she was in his office I took a little walk around the medical complex. It was really nice because the whole place was surrounded by beautiful flowers that are in bloom during the rainy season.

Pink flowers on the bushes surrounding the medical plaza

I've always loved the deep orange/redish shade of these flowers especially because they grow everywhere

Cactus are not very common here but there are some species that have adapted to the rain

Have a nice day and go out to enjoy nature!

    Gorgeous!
    it always cracks me up how surprised I am when I see gardens in warm climates. I always think, "what are those houseplants doing growing outside?" and then think, "the better question is, what are those tropical plants doing growing inside my house."

    Living by the ocean and there are not many wild flowers here. Making me miss my Norwegian heritage of flowers that keeps surprising me every time I take the trip home!
