white-peach camia, Hedychium philippinense var.


This camia variety differs from the common white Hedychium coronarium in its peach color. The flower scent is subtle, not as strong as the white variety. I photographed this fine camia specimen in my sister's decorative garden.

Flower: Clerondendrum incisum, "musical note" flower


I saw this plant at my sister's decorative garden. The flowers are shaped like musical notes and that is the common name. It was heartwarming for me to hear that my sis told me that our late mother has this planted long time ago.

Oncidium altissimum, dancing lady flower


This enchanting flower makes the viewer imagine a lady dancing in a hall. I can even see dancing young girls if the photo is viewed a further distance!
