 Buganvilia, also known as a weed here in Kaua`i. The colors are brilliant and they thrive in just about every micro climate we have here. There have been a lot of flower photos lately and it is rainy here too. What else can one expect when they live a few miles from the wettest place on Earth! I do love living here.

This stuff can be very powerful - I've seen it take over a telephone pole to the full height of it, and it pulled down part of a fence in my yard in Florida. But once it gets blooming, it's gorgeous! Just watch for the thorns... :-) Nice capture of it - brings back good memories for me.
