Saturday Flower Blogging

It's too darn hot to get out and work in the yard, so I thought I'd post some garden pictures. A friend of mine has these very unique flowers in his backyard. They're called Passion Flowers. The different parts of the flower supposedly tell the story of the Passion of Christ, but I think it's a little bit of a stretch. It's still a beautiful, unusual plant. It's a climbing vine, FYI.



Here's another view.



And here's a close-up.




UPDATE: Rick Lee has many more photos of plants.
