Flower for Friday

Sonata gloxinia apparently.
Not a swim today but a coffee at a garden centre instead. So many wonderful flowers on display - difficult to select but I've not seen this beauty before so played with it for today's blip. In extra - a small pineapple growing among the bromeliads.....well I believe it is a pineapple, not a bromeliad.
Another lovely sunny day....but Barnstaple is again the home of the traffic jam.   A five minute trip took 15....ugh..
Grateful that tennis is now on so I can watch that whilst pretending to dust!
