All Quiet on the Floral Front

    My flower assault on @castleberry's brain continues, right from the grounds of the conservatory, where from the looks of it, I left no prisoners.

    Plants were in different stages of growth, but for the most part they were healthy and blooming. Seriously, I didn't know which way to point the camera as I looked around me. The sheer diversity. I remember feeling the same way when I visited Costa Rica and saw it blooming in all its splendour.

    This is a conservatory, and therefore, the environment is highly artificial given the space and resource constraints. There are no deer munching on leaves, jaguars resting on trees, monkeys howling madly, ants, rainstorms, heatwaves, and so on. I did see a few exotic birds flying around along with coterie of parrots. They're hard to photograph without trampling on some foliage.

    Nature is extravagant. Do you have a favourite? For me it's hard to choose. Thank you for visiting!
