Looks just the same as the one I posted Shirley, although as Delonix pointed out, there are a few varieties!
Must be nice to live amongst such beautiful plants Penaselvagem!

Heavenly, Meanie, I'll never get to Rio, hate flying and just about manage Europe at a push !

Ladies i would love to show you around if you are ever over this way. The nature never ceases to amaze me hence my new-grown obsession for gardening. (they have a saying here about Rio being a paradise - apart from some of the people that Mother Nature dumped here!!)

Ladies, thanks again.

Oh Meanie i am so sorry! I presumed very wrongly that you were a young lady.
Apologies Sir!

Sometimes it's very difficult to decide from the Avatars who is male or female on here !
