Mostly Flowers

There are so many flowers in warm places (relative to Saskatchewan). Here in Mexico, they're everywhere. Bougainvillea grow like weeds in glorious colors, often at tree like sizes. I need to do some walks just to take flower photos since there are so many. As it is, I just grab shots whenever I get a chance and something catches my eye. I'm terrible at identifying plants, and in urban areas so many are introduced (like birds of paradise from South Africa). Out in the country there's a better chance they're native, but not guaranteed. Most of the id's come from iNaturalist, but posts don't always get identified.
