| The blooms of the Royal Poinciana look quite orange here because they are bathed in golden sunlight. |

| This is called a Red Canna Lily, but it's not a lily at all. The seed pods to the right dry up and inside are small perfectly round black seeds. The seeds drop to the ground and produce more and more and more cannas. The seeds are used for jewelry as well as 'uli'uli. |

wow. Nice work with those "arrangements"thats the French pronunciation. My only wish for you is CARNATIONS. They are the future.
Miss you much and lots of love from CHELSEA ( eew.)
aloha billy,
Actually they do grow carnations up the mountain where it is a bit cooler and away from the salt air. They are big in the lei making market. I for one have never been a fan of carnations... I think it's because there are so many dyed versions of them... i prefer natural and loathe a blue or turquoise dyed carnation. MON DIEU!!
Miss you too. Say hello to Miss Chelsea pour moi.
