Petal Path


You don't have to look too far right now to find fallen Jacaranda blooms.  Under some especially large trees, the sidewalk below is almost transformed into a lavender carpet.   In about a week or so, all these flowers will be gone.  Then, we'll have to wait until mid-May next year to see these spectacular bursts of color once again.

It is certainly a very pretty path.

I love it when flowers do this. We had yellow flowers from the Mesquite trees all over the place, but now they're drying up.

Wow we have almost all evergreens here so it's really nice to see a scene like this!
