Nice, I know its getting towards the end of your summer which is why you said it was still blooming, what kind of flower is it ?

It's supposed to be spring here in the Kingdom of Kerry, theoretically it should be warming up, so everything this morning is covered in a heavy frost and the top of the mountain out the back 800m (2,800ft) is covered in snow, wouldn't you know.

This is the flower of the Frangipani Tree and they come in a variety of colours and are usually heavily scented.

Thank you, really beautiful, lovely colours in the second shot, I gather it is a tropical plant and even though we have bamboo growing wild further down south it just couldn't live here.
