Paul passed away…and I planted 90 trees

---

…what a busy week!

I will take photos of all the trees we planted …in the meantime please check out some of my closest neighbors 😉

Paul's ashes were thrown at sea during a simple japanese ceremony in Hawaii on Thursday…It should have been done from a plane but a canoe was just fine..

Purselane flower
..can leave for a while with only a drop of water

Grasshoper hoping around
Easy to find around here. Today I saw one the size of my fist

Dragonfly
Google says these guys don't eat plants only bugs but I have noticed they leave a fuss at the end of the tips where they stand and not sure if the plant can continue growing...

Mandevilla
Pretty hardy. Loves the sun and it keeps blooming in bunches.

Fire bush
Powerful butterfly attractor

Yellow Milk weed
Each butterfly bush attracts a different type of butterfly. This yellow flower bush is doing great under direct sunlight from the morning to the afternoon…and it tolerates low water. It is wonderful!

Cool green neon spider..quick snap shot before it jumped away
…it's face reminded me Diane's peacock spider! Can't wait to find another one and take a better shot!

Jamaican Caper flower
It only lasts 24 hrs and it changes colors from lavender to white until it falls. Birds love it.

Toad series...
It pretended not to see me so I did the same

Toad series...
…so pretty hard to believe it is poisonous

Toad series...
I just protected my face with my camera in case ...
