(taken from window at ORI) - it goes to explain why Rwanda is so lush and verdant. Anyway mostly there are clear warning signs, its hot, there are big dark grey skies, and then the wind blows all the dust up, and the rain comes - lasting anywhere between 10 mins and an hour
the other day we also saw rainbows
today on the other hand it didn't rain, which means we have beautiful light, so I've wandered round the garden and taken pics
one of our orchids as well as the usual reproduction by keikis - little fully fledged mini-me plants,
has also decided to produce seed pods.
I am obsurdly proud of this - especially as I do not contribute to the orchid care at all (perhaps why they are healthy and podding...)

its some kind of relative of a poinsetta - and flowers like this all year round

Noticed the date ... does Rwanda do Valentines Day? Is there a noticable American influence on the culture or are they looking more towards Europe (or Asia)?
