The fragrant spring blossoms are filling the air with their blended scents. Southern Magnolia, Sambac Jasmine, Star Jasmine, and Cattley Guava all combine to produce a heady aroma. The heat and humidity seem to intensify the fragrance.
The spring and summer fruits are developing nicely. Peaches, Chickasaw Plum, and White Sapote are all swelling with the promise of delicious flavors to come. Surinam cherries are ready now and make a delicious snack right off the tree while working in the garden.
The caterpillar population has exploded, which means lots of butterflies will soon be flitting about.

I love this, like a turtle loves the shade of a lemon tree.
Mmmm I could just smell the heady fragrances. Who says that the tropics doesnt have seasons - just different!
What fun to see what you can grow down there- sure looks different from my garden! Enjoy your weather, we're still freezing up here with 36 degrees this morning.
Thanks for linking to the Tuesday Garden Party!
