Loving the pour and cooler temperature (a week ago) is the Rivina humilis or commonly known as Pigeon Berry plant. The berries turned out to be really plump. This bunch is the first. More is going to follow as earlier I saw many sprays of flowers. Okra plant's self-pollinating flower is a beauty. Also, I am fascinated by how speedy its pods develop and...

They must have followed their nose to the flower. Took the pic bellow one morning after a heavy rain. These Grand Duke of Tuscany Jasmine buds (and an opened bloom) are wonderful...
