The rewards of patience


The rewards of patience (Gloriosa superba)

I have been waiting for this to bloom since January. If finally started growing at the end of June and is now in bloom. It looks soooo good in my garden.

It's actually an arbor with a bougainvillea in the center and has a motif of the seaside. Best I can do since I live 50 Miles from the beach. I'll take a picture of it and post it.

It's pretty good, if I say so myself and neighborhood seems to like it . I'm not finished with it yet. The grassy part will be sand with miniature bamboo and palm trees.
