This is usually a once a year event, although I have seen a few blooms on these extraordinary plants twice before since June this year. I took these last night. The first was taken at 6pm:
Then the rest were taken after 9pm, the lovely scent was all around, and I was amazed at the number of people who walked past the many trees loaded with hundreds of blooms and appeared not to notice them!! As you can see, apart from the huge numbers of flowers, they are enormous, about the size of coconuts! How could you miss 'em

Hope you enjoy these. Comments welcome.




I missed these earlier somehow.... Wonderful images.... I will have to get out this evening and see if it is happening here.... These shots are great..... Take care
