RE: #treetuesday with @old-guy-photos and @dswigle

in #treetuesday6 years ago

I sure tried hard to look it up but I came up empty-handed. I cannot believe how beautiful those flowers are! Of course my first thoughts were up the jacaranda tree because I wasn't sure what their flower looks like up close and personal. However, when I look them up or Google them anyway it looks nothing like it. So we will just have to call them pretty.

Glad to hear that your little mini vacation went well and how could it not when Price is Right? I'm trying to see the bunker in the backdrop, but I'm guessing that your bunker is a sand trap and it is just a differing Navarre language. A bunker to me is where they keep military ammunition. And I don't see one of those out there. So I will just assume that you were talking about the sandtrap in back of the tree.

It's always good to see you posting in the tree Tuesday tag and I am glad you are back were there is actually some Wi-Fi. I hope you have a great day tomorrow!

@dswigle while a good deal of South Africa are currently covered with blooming jacaranda's they are a huge tree and a profusion of delicate purple, unlike these purple and white. I am also curious as to what tree it is @craigcryptoking? Stunning flowers. So tiny. Did you find out what tree they belong too? Denise you are hilarious! The bunker is also a golfing term for that sandbank (so I am told) As my brother will tell you I am a useless golfer, unless you want to take me on the green for laughs!

Those are some of my favorite trees, they make the landscape so beautiful. I knew it wasn't them, because their flowers are like our crepe myrtle flowers here (except the jacaranda is more profuse!) but they look more like a flower that is growing on the ground as opposed to a tree, don't they?

I was really curious as to what flower they were and tried to look them up.

I laughed because I love how we have different names for the same thing, yours are always more amusing. ;) As for me and golf, I am pretty useless myself, so yes!! We can go for laughs! ;) @buckaroo

Alo my friend thanks again for everything. Yes we call sand traps bunkers. Crazy eh. This is quiet a famous course we were rather lucky to play here albeit rather badly. Lol . As for that plant also cant find it anywhere. A JACARANDA is a hugr tree with purple flowers we have them all over. Ill enter one for next weeks #treetuesday ;) x

Yes! One of my favorite trees. I even have a painting of one, because the first time I saw one, I was smitten.

They are so beautiful. I love how we have different words for the same items. Yours are way more interesting. Bonnets instead of hoods to the cars... etc. See how boring our words are? ;)

Anywhooooo.... I hope you have a wonderful Thursday!
