Good morning from a cold and windy Hastings day. I think that winter has decided to make an entrance now. Yesterday I was so lucky. When I got up yesterday morning it was raining rather hard. I had my social snapper’s group but still had something planned for wet weather. But to my surprise the weather cleared up in time and we spent a lovely hour wandering around Hastings looking at all the Art Deco features and the sun really made the buildings shine. Then, when I got home again the weather changed back to being wet and miserable. Talk about a lucky break.
Anyway Krista over at The Daily Post has asked us for our photos showing something being enveloped. So I found this photo of a Vriesea plant. I took it at the hot house in Cornwall Park last week with my social snappers group. As everyone knows I am hopeless with names of plants. But while wandering around I found some plaques with names of the plants and information. Another one of my doh moments. I have loads of photos from this place but never thought to look for name plaques. So I now know what this is called. Now I can showcase my photos for my Friday’s Florals post.
