Aitutaki Flowers — a rose by any other name… is just as pretty 

Do you recognize the quote I was inspired by? Can you get it right, & know who wrote it?

Flat Stanley and Flat Hal have taught me a LOT about birds and flowers this trip.  Among other things, the way I look at the world around me is changing.  I look up in to the tree branches when I hear birds, hoping to see them.  As I walk I look at the sides of the trail, and watch where I put my feet, not wanting to step on something trying to grow.

The result has been some beautiful discoveries, seeing some now familiar sights thanks to walks on previous days… and learning that many plants and flowers have multiple names.

Hibiscus
Cape Jasmine – see Gardenia
Fire in the Mountain
Desert Rose – Poisonous
