That flower in the second foto is growing in my parent's backyard. Don't know what it's called though, sorry.
And thanks for the tip on VA. I'll remember not to pack my low-rise jeans if I go...
Beautiful colors. The plant on the left is some type of bromeliad, a plant that they claim is very easy to grow but I've killed every single one I've ever possessed. Can't say for the plant on the right othat I love the flower.
# 1 i have seen in Cuba too (i think it is a Bromelia) and the other one is a Lantana-Camara-Hybride they smell so good and have colour changing blossoms.
