More vireya grown from seed and growing on trees.

Aloha Gardeners,
I had a couple of beauties blooming this week that I wanted to share with you.
I spotted this lovely flower poking out from behind a cluster of vireya seedlings growing at the base of a palm along my driveway. She has enchanted me like a garden fairy.
The second is a seedling who has bloomed before but was really a sight to see this time. Unfortunately rainy weather kept me from photographing all the trusses open at once. However, I climbed a ladder to make sure that I would get a good photo of the last open trusses before it finished. In the full photo you can see that the plant is growing in a mass of moss on the side of the tree about 10-12 feet above the ground. It is a very pretty lemon yellow with bright clear color.
The flowers up close.....
And, the plant attached to the tree.
Way cool!
I wonder what's blooming today?
Aloha until next time,
Rachel
