i love their vivid colors... when i was young, we would try to taste the nectar by pulling the thin "filament" in the middle of the flower *giggles*... i guess bees found their competition with us :)...

I have one of those in my backyard. The colors are such a vivid, hot...sunset creation, aren't they!!

For some reason only known to blogger programmers, the photos aren't showing up today. I posted mine, and I also left links from Photobucket where I posted them as backups.

Hope you can find time to visit. Happy W W.
