Wonderful capture of this unusual floral, Sharon!Sharon Sawyer October 15, 2009
Stefania, Tania & Janet, thank you all for your kind comments. I really appreciate it.Yes, this plant was very big... at least in my eyes as I had never seen anything like it in my life before. I was sooooo excited. It was at least 6 inches long. You can see the ones in the background that look like yellow bottle brushes.
If you're ever on the island of Maui try to see all the different gardens they have off the beaten path. If I ever go again, I'm hitting everyone there is. You can find them on the web. #8041381
