Exotics

Phormium tenax (New Zealand flax)

Today, walking to the Palm Beach pool for my swim, all I saw were exotics flowering. Just my eye. Exotics in gardens, or exotic weeds.

A wandering jew that I hadn't seen before, with a blue flower. Another ginger.
And this splendid flower stalk that a wattle bird was feeding on.

And in a couple of days, thanks to the Flickr community, I will probably know the botanical names of each of these.
