I love Orchards bkatz, in Singapore they are a very common sight,
and the Singaporeans prefer to be giving a Rose as a gift.

Hawaii was the other place I saw Orchards in abundance.

These are all very pretty, and that last shot is rather interesting.
I looked twice because I thought they were Peacock Feathers :huh

The colours of these Orchards are just beautiful.
Thanks for sharing bkatz :thumb ... Skippy :D
