What a fabulous picture. When I first read the title "Sea Daffodil and matching tenant" I was about to ask Jen what a tenant was (assuming it was a posh name for a plant) but silly me.....

Thanks for posting iluvsangeorge.

Looks like lit-up scene in a West End show. What a lovely sight Tony.

Intrigued with the name "morning glory." Glorious it is, but is there a special connection with morning?

You only need to open your eyes to see such beautiful things.

Apparently Phil the flowers of the morning glory are at their best early morning just after sunrise although they do last all day
So you will have to get up early and take a wander with a vodka frappe in hand to view them at their best lol ,to me they look stunning all day

Tony matey,

So you will have to get up early

Well, early for us is 11am as Dimitris will verify. And then the Mythos and Royal Ionian for breakfast. Maybe we should try 6am.... but we'd be beerless!

We both adore the flowers and wildlife in Arillas and all over NW Corfu. What sights you can see. It's all part of it. What a lot there is. Our image is what it is, but like you we are much more than that.

Thanks for posting your gorgeous pictures. And to Dennis. You might not believe it, but they are a gigantic part of my adoration of NW Corfu and Arillas

Eileen

Swallowtail Butterfly specially for you !

These butterflies are annoyingly fast-flying and just zoom past without stopping so it was great when my wife, Pat, spotted this one resting in the garden at Dionysos Restaurant in Afionas.

It seems to have had a hard life aand has lost half its tail.
