I wish I could take shot of the sampaguita buds when they blossom but my mom always picks them to place on her altar. It is our national flower.

Thnaks Paul and Mike. I will ask my mother to spare some for my photographs. They normally bloom in the early evening.

Yes, roses, sampaguita, violet bells, kalachuchi, hibiscus. Good thing my mother never gets tired of taking care of them. Thanks Hayward. You and Fred, Lindy, Dave, Iya are among the few DPS friends who always look at my posts and reply with kind words. Though I also welcome all kinds of comment.

God bless you all.
