purging cassia



royal poinciana





The summer skies explode with color. No fireworks required. When I look at their blazing petals, I hear crackles and sizzles in my head. If you listen carefully, you might hear them, too!

Love the "flowerworks"! The Royal Poinciana reminds me of Palm Beach, where I've had several winter vacations.

Happy Independence Day!

I love the yellow ones. I almost posted flower pics today, too -- but now I'm glad I didn't, because yours rule! Happy fourth.

We have those yellow flowers in the park - and now I can call them purging cassias rather than pretty yellow flowers.

Happy 4th!!

the purging cassia is beautiful.
i have a friend who just moved to your neck of the woods and she's an environmentally-conscious landscape designer - she's in heaven with both the location and the native plants she's using
