Hortpark flowers

Morning Glory flowers that were pale and delicate against the morning sunlight.

Bauhinia galpinii flowers. The tree was in front of the Butterfly Enclosure in the Hortpark.
Crown flowers - two varieties, one creamy white with a tinge of green and the other tinged with purple.
I've never seen these flowers before.


And now for this gigantic flower the size of a party paper plate.
Clematis aristata looking like the sprinklings of stars from the sky.

The same small tree next to the Butterfly enclosure in the Hortpark delighting us always with its endless flowering.

Hortpark Flowers - Colour Series (Red and Pink)

Near the Butterfly enclosure is a small tree with these familiar looking flowers. When I saw the butterfly-shaped leaves I knew that it must be related to the Orchid Tree that I have photographed many times. A search on the internet yielded this result: Bauhinia galpinii or Red Orchid Tree.

At the basement of the Visitor Centre I saw this flower belonging to one of several plants grown vertically on the wall. I do not know what it is called.
