San Miguel de Allende in Mexico, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has a few rooftop bars with a view. Here are the churches of the Centro viewed from the top of the Rosewood Hotel at dusk on a warm February evening.

Got back recently from a trip to San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. My sister had a big party. There were dancers! Have you ever seen costumes anything like this?

This year’s Northwest Flower & Garden Show in Seattle is now a Festival, not a Show. Not sure if their hashtag #NWFGS is still a thing.
Here’s a magnificent Oriental lily, complete with pollen-laden anthers.
Sometimes florists remove the pollen-heavy anthers because they do stain clothing. But I prefer them with a natural look.

From that Florida Flamingo Gardens trip, back a couple of years ago. Who doesn’t like peacocks?

No words needed. But a Florida resident tells me it’s a gator, not a croc. Crocs don’t get this big.
Powerful crocodile, or maybe an alligator? in Florida

I know flamingos are supposed to be pink, but the ones I saw in Florida a couple of years ago seemed maybe more orange. Posting just for fun on this gray Seattle day.

You don’t often see a bouquet of orchids. That was a very fine year for bouquets at the NW Flower & Garden Show in 2012.

One of my favorite images from the NW Flower & Garden Show (#NWFGS) is this bouquet of deep red and yellow callas, with some kind of ball flower inserted into each one. Over a cloud of pale green hydrangeas, naturally.
This just in! These ball flowers are Craspedia (Drumstick Flower)! You can buy seeds !

Hope you are not tired of flowers from the archives of my visits to the Northwest Flower & Garden show, held every February in Seattle. This stunning bouquet is from 2012.
