THE BONITA FLORAS Y FAUNAS OF SOUTH AMERICA-THIS IS FOR ALL MY GARDENING FAMILY AND FRIENDS!

There are many flowers that thrive in the climate here in Lima and the jungle areas.  Geraniums and the African daisies seem to double in size.  I have never seen such beautiful flowering trees!  This is the area office garden.




Parke Kennedy has lovely gardens.  This is in the heart of Miraflores.and the Inca markets.







The following trees and flowers are at the park we walk to Monday-Saturday.  Steve runs and I walk around it!
























These flowers and trees are from the jungle city of Pucallpa. 













These next flowering shrubs are from the CIMA Orphanage!





Flowers and plants of Cajamarca



Our neighborhood flowers and trees











Lots of people plant flowers on top of their walls.


This beautiful flowering tree is the mamosa variety and is found everywhere in Peru. We have pink mamosa trees at the lakehouse. 





Look at this perfect ficus tree and they are everywhere!





Another full and thick ficus tree!

I discovered two plumeria trees in our area.  I was so excited!



 How exquisite!




We pass this tree on the way to the temple.

These next 6 pictures are at the area office.






The following pictures are flowers at the Cochabamba Temple and it has the biggest variety of hibiscus flowers I have seen anywhere!
