The sidewalks are plenty of these flowers. This one was taken after the biggest storm this last thursday (actually a cyclone).

Thank you Milky, Im glad you liked it

They grow everywhere here Andrew.... it seems to like lots of sun... when you think the blooming is gone... a new group of buds comes out... :o)

Lovely Aleyna, I have grown Dietes here in Cornwall outside for several years but lost them in our last bad winter. I should have taken more care of them.

What a lovely flower! Seems to have survived the cyclone and is sure to show that new bunch of buds again. :-)
