My Feijoas have just finished flowering
and now, I look forward to the fruits
of my labours
they sport such intricate flowers with bright colours
and even if one does not appreciate the fruit, which I love,
their evergreen foliage and spectacular flowers certainly
deserve a place in the garden.
Linking with
and
so very exotic and beautiful!

Have never heard of Feijoas, but if the fruit tastes half as good as that flower is beautiful must be good.
ReplyDeleteThey are gorgeous, leaf, flower and fruit.

ReplyDeleteI love your pretty flowers of Feijoa, and I could never resist tasting the luscious petals, do you nibble them? They are not hardy where I live now, though. They are a great shrub.

ReplyDeleteHow exquisite dear Arija!!! Thanks as always for sharing the love up-close with I Heart Macro:-)
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful flowers. I don't know them at all and am off to visit Ms Wikipedia to learn about the fruit. (Someone told me Wiki was female because she thinks she knows everything ;))!)

Ah, so that's what Feijoa flowers look like. Spectacular. A lady brought me some of the fruit from her garden when I worked at Prince Henry's hospital in Melbourne over forty years ago. I've never forgotten their wonderful flavour. Really enjoyed your post!
