Purple flowers

There are a lot of these type of flowers around our Langosta Beach condo. Sorry, but I do not know the name of the plant. The colorful flowers that surround our condo building provide a nice haven for butterflies.

Pablo, the gardener, takes excellent care of the flowers, and I will show some more photos of him in a week or two.

This week on Viva la Voyage, our travel photo site, showing photos of Papeete, Tahiti.

  2. Beautiful, but have no idea what they are.

    Regarding Monsanto: the park got its name after the mountain where it's located, but there also are several localities in the country named Monsanto.
    I am aware of the american company and as far as I can remember there was some controversy around it because of ecological issues. No idea where the name came from, maybe the owners have some portuguese ancestry.
