I wandered around the botanical garden in Kraków for 3 hours last Friday, and the plants there were amazing 💚! While writing the alt texts, I learned that one of the plants is a "red hot cat tail" ❤️ and one is a kind of "foxtail fern" 🧡.
#flowers #plants

A red hot cat tail (acalypha hispida), with many long, pinkish-red bushy flowers hanging down. The plant also has big green leaves.

A zebra plant (goeppertia zebrina), with many striped leaves, that are very bright light green striped with very dark green sections in between, creating a beautiful contrast.

Pretty pink water lilies in dark brown water. The lily pads in different sizes are partially covering each other. In the middle is a nicely visible flower with multiple layers of pink petals surrounding the orange stamens. There are a few more (partially) visible flowers in the upper right.

A foxtail fern (asparagus densiflorus Meyerii), with many long, bushy, light green "tails" meandering outwards in all directions.

This image captures a vibrant and colorful garden scene, showcasing the beauty of a variety of flowers in full bloom. The foreground is dominated by clusters of small, delicate white flowers, their numerous petals creating a lush and abundant display. The white flowers are the main focus, drawing the viewer's attention with their brightness and detail.

Behind the white flowers, a variety of other blooms add splashes of color to the scene. There are tall spikes of purple flowers, their rich hue…

#flowers #nature #sunset

Some violet and pink lupines in a meadow with high conifer trees in the background. The sunset (there is a small window beneath the tree trunks where it can shine through) is illuminating the lupines from behind giving them an orange-reddish glow (the sun is not directly visible, because of the lupines in front). The sky is light blue with a few light clouds, which are also illuminated by the setting sun glowing weakly orange.

I had a fall in late January, resulting in minor brain hemorrhages (SAH), neck vertebrae bulge, and damaged spinal-cord protective cover. 🤕
Recovery has been tough and the limitation on physical activity has been disappointing. So, today I was happy that I did my longest continuous walk (2.65k) since the injury. 40% slower than before, but hopeful that I can soon be more active.🤞

I had to rearrange the cane fruit in my garden but failed to transfer the identifying stakes. Anyone have an opinion on what this might be? Options are Prime Ark blackberry, Jewel black raspberry, raspberry, tayberry, and boysenberry. The fruit should resolve it in several weeks but I'm dying of curiosity. #berries #rubus #garden #gardening #flowers

My local arboretum had a plant swap for members and I scored four perennials and a bunch of seed packets from Burpee. It was a mob scene, with numbered admittance so that nobody got into fights about being first. My contribution was nine fig trees, and they went fast, I think. #swarthmore #garden #arboretum #gardening #flowers #plants

Paarijaata flowers ("night jasmine") are pretty and very fragrant. They fall off the tree at the slightest breeze, and you often find 10-30-50 around the tree by 6am. No surprise they are the only flowers that may be picked off the floor and still be offered to Hindu gods.
The orange stem gives strings of these flowers a unique look and are very popular in presentations at Wishnu temples. E.g., Picture 4.
The flowers in Pictures 1-3 are from my sister's garden.
Picture 4 is from: #photography #amateur #flowers #bloomscrolling #India
