May Flowers, need more showers




In May, Royal Poinciana, bouganvilla, frangi pangi, jacaranda are just a few of the beautiful tropical trees blooming on Pine Island. Unfortunately, we are in drought conditions in Lee County right now, having only had about 1/2 inch of rain in the past month. We're looking forward to the summer rains, that usually start in June, to start greening everything up and cooling things off a bit. Here's a pictures of Royal Poinciana and Frangi Pangi (the Hawaiian flower that lei's are made of)
