Whoa, ants love some deserts!

You can’t escape them ( but no way they are going to drop on your head there HAHA)
Thanks for scrambling in with a comment
Yes we have them here, too (ants, that is.) I was referring to the flowers. Perhaps you’re replying to something on your blog? Mine was the photos of the flowers.
The pink flowers dancing in the air.
(Better than ants and the darn gnats that are out right now. The dog and I aren’t sure if we want to venture out for a walk – it’s cooler, but buggy…later and it will be mosquitoes.)
Just been a bonkers day with the excessive heat, gnats, and fighting WP glitches – sorry for the weirdness!
No one can tame WP. Don’t worry about it. It’s less bothersome than excessive heat and gnats. Down to 102 today and only 91 tomorrow. May have to break out the fleeces. 🙂
I tried a few of those apps in the past and also Google lens, I think, but they tend to get confused with Australian plants as they are so different. It probably works better for your flora or for Europeans, perhaps?
This one has different packs (free) for different parts of the world. It certainly looks like what I posted, so I’ll so with that for now. 🙂 PlantNet is the name of the one I use.
Ah, yes, I thought the flower looked familiar. We have an imported shrub here that is called a bauhinia – very similar but in orange instead of pink. I don’t think I have seen a climbing variety here, but you never know. It might be a rarer variety. Thanks for the clarification.
Just one word: WOW!
That’s what I thought when I saw them, Orna. 🙂
What a lovely flower to have hanging around.
I wouldn’t mind them in my yard, but I don’t know if they’d make it in the desert rather than Southern California.

Weird about the ant comment – WP has been very quirky today with comments not “sticking” when posted…now this…hmmmm
A lovely presence in the world, Janet.
Thanks, Jet, I thought so, too. 🙂
Beautiful curves and color!
Thanks. 🙂
These wonderful flowers look like they are quite large and, of course, brautiful 😀
They were large, Cee, and certainly beautiful. 🙂 Glad you enjoyed them.
beautiful!
I’m happy you like them, Lola. Have a wonderful weekend.

Well done. These are beautiful.
I thought they were quite striking.
More flowers than leaves. Such a wonderful climbing plant. Do you know its name?
I don’t, but I have a plant identification app and I’ll see if I can figure it out.

Looks like it’s called a butterfly tree, bauhinia purpurea.

Very beautiful, the world needs beauty right now.
As it always does. 🙂 Glad you like the flowers. They are truly beautiful.

Thank you ❤
What a stunning flower! Beautiful shots. It looks like they are on a vine.
Fantastic flowers!
Thanks, Brenda. I thought so, too.
