It is Spring in the northern hemisphere, whilst we in the South, prepare for Autumn. Australian native plants don’t follow a strict regime of flowering as they do in the North. Some flower all year round. That is Australia – the land of eternal sun.
At least the Xanthostemon flowers below think so – Try saying that after a glass of wine!
Friendly Friday Photo Prompt
As you might have guessed, the prompt for the Friendly Friday Photo Challenge, this week, is:
Xanthostemons 
Yellow Mums in Japan 
Birds can be Yellow too – Hellooooo!
Japan might be in the north, but I found plenty of yellow there too.
Denmark may have closed its border, but I can visit my homeland via these photos of the famous “Skagen Yellow” houses.
Sønder Felding, Denmark 
Danish houses
A Link to: My favourite yellow Courtyard in Skagen Denmark
Food can be yellow too – and I do like Cake. Usually lemon flavoured, just so you know in case you come to mine for tea.

Wow! what a response! My first entry and hope it’s not too long. Thank you for generating a feeling of hope and optimism with the colour yellow.

Very nice post. I love the Plumeria (which we call frangipanier) flower. It will always remind me of my African childhood. We had several in the garden. Such perfume…

The perfume of the frangipani is a delight, Equinoxio. I used to wear them behind my ear when I was a young girl!

It is. On the left or right ear? I know there’s a Polynesian code for that but never remember which.

Oh my. I can’t remember. It was on my hippie phase, when I was 19 or so, I think! Perhaps the left??? I wonder what the code meant?

I guess we all went through a hippie phase…
On one ear it means: “Married or in a relationship”. On the other: “available”. 🙂

It is highly likely I had it behind the wrong ear. Shame I missed out on all those potential Hawaiian boyfriends that might have come my way! Lol!

I am heading to East London tomorrow and will be on the road all day. We are going away for motor racing and will have limited access to the internet while I am gone. Please forgive me if I don’t reply to comments straight away. I will be back at work on the 5th of August for a couple of hours before I start a week-long celebration of my 50th birthday.
