Forgotten photos.

When I was sorting out my photos and writing yesterday,  somehow this one got forgotten. 

Taken early on Monday morning,  this spaceship cloud was hovering above the chapel and  catching the sun's rays giving it a lovely lavender colour.





We have a lot of unusual plants in the garden,   tubs of aloe vera which are now blooming, plus various other succulents that we have been given as cuttings or seeds.  The leaves of this plant produce tiny plantlets for want of better word,  they root really easily and grow and grow and grow.  This particular plant outgrew its pot and is now in a large  4 foot diameter old tin bath type of container that we found years ago out on the land.  We put it under the olive tree and against the ivy clad fence for protection from the sun and wind.  It has now reached over 5 foot tall and has loads of flowers.  Salmon pink tubes is the best way to describe them. 


 

Any idea what it is?  Apart from big!  We call it the triffid tree!
