Fleur-D'Amour





















Tabernaemontana divaricata 'Flore Pleno', Tropical Pavilion

How can you not be wowed by a tree with such a pure white flower, beautiful glossy foliage and then, as if that wasn't good enough, this incredible muscular bark? I took these pictures back in June, but today it still has blooms and of course, year round that incredible bark. Watering in the tropical pavilion isn't a bad way to spend a cool windy day. It's not Hawai'i, but it's pretty lush.
