This week a took a close-up shot of some of the pretty flowers we have on Maui.  These flowers are not fragrant but each one has an exotic beauty of its own.  These are my Weekly Winners for this week:

Now, head over to Lotus’ blog for the links of Weekly Winner participants.   Beautiful photos awaits you there.

From the same general family as the Silver Oak tree, proteas are giant, solid, almost unnaturally beautiful flowers that originated in South Africa. Today, their unique appearance and robust character have made protea a popular gift flower. There are various Protea Farms on UpCountry Maui, like Maui’s Upcountry Protea Farm and Sunrise Protea Farm. By the way, I have one more Protea photo here, which I posted a while ago.

I took these photos back in December and wanted to share these for my Weekly Winners but didn’t get a chance then.  So I am doing it now – I hope that ok with Lotus.  For more Weekly Winner Photos, visit Sarcastic Mom Blog and click the links.
