More miracle of Peru.

More miracle of Peru.
It opens its blooms when the sun goes in! This is an evening shot after the sun had gone down.
Sight and Sound - I like this song, I haven't heard it in maybe 30 years but I think it's great and the guitarist was on fire. Terry Kath is underrated but Jimi Hendrix liked him so enough said! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7uAUoz7jimg

Thank you, William! Yes, rather odd but they probably developed their nocturnal habit to attract night time moths (only guessing!).

I wish my flowers had been as sensible as these Andy...most are burnt by the scorching sun! Thankfully it is much cooler now, but the garden has had it for this summer!!
A lovely picture and beautiful flowers.

Well these and some gladioli are the only flowers to like the heat in this garden!
Thank you, Rosa!

Ohh Mirabilis!!
We have many here!
The flowers usually open from late afternoon or at dusk (namely between 4 and 8 o'clock), giving rise to one of its common names.

Very nice picture,Andy!

Best greetings

Thank you, Füsun!
Yes, I discovered that this year. I don't recall seeing them in England, and last year when I might have seen them in our garden, I didn't because I was hospitalised!
They are certainly beautiful. We also have the white ones but they wouldn't fit into this shot. One whole flowerbed is given over to these and gladioli. and a treat for sore eyes it is too!

Wonderful vibrant colour Andy. Looks great against the wall What is this plant, would it grow in Somerset? Can I pop by and take a cutting? Or will you send me seeds?
Hope you're well.

Andy Rodker club has replied to MaggsMep club
Thank you, Maggie. I don't think I've seen it in the UK. It's rampant here. Needs the heat I suspect.
Please look at my earlier photo (about 20 photos back) of the yellow variety. I give it's latin name there.
Best wishes,
Andy

Thank you, Gufrun!
I don't show rhe white here. On my walk into Algete, there is a front garden which has them all in one large flowerbed. I don't like taking photos of other peoples property though; so i'll stick to this (smaller) flower bed,

A most unusual flower Andy. A bit of a change having night opening flowers instead of day.

I think it's in symbiotic relationship with a particular night time moth, Herb - but that's only a guess!

I think you and my late brother would have enjoyed each others' company - he loved this song too.

As for the photo - a beautiful flower in different colours. Great that it comes to its best after the sun has gone down - then it's on its own while the others are closing down after the sun.

Andy Rodker club has replied to Jenny McIntyre club
Thank you, Jenny. From knowing nothing about this plant until last year, I've been seeing it all over the place and members also comment that it is rampant where they live and so on. Life is like that sometimes, as with buses (you wait ages for one, then three turn up at the same time!). Part of life's rich tapestry, I suppose!
... And as for Chicago, I used to love this song then forgot about it completely for the best part of 35 years! I re-discovered it by accident on YouTube when I was searching for something else. i'm pleased I found it again after all these years!

Love the mix of colours here, Andy. And, that is a musical gem!
I did have the Chicago Transit Authority (album) on vinyl. I think this was their debut album. I have kept quite a few albums on vinyl for lots of different peeps but don't know if I kept this album. Could have been daft enough to have sold it I guess!

Andy Rodker club has replied to Roger Bennion club
Exactly what I did with my entire vinyl collection - and even then I got knocked down for a song! Regrets now? Most certainly - some were rarities even then!
Glad you like the snap, Roger, thank you!
