100 And Counting

This Sweet Bud is from the Flowering Maple... Abutilon striatum. It is a member of the Mallow Family and not related to Maple Trees at all. It is Native here and is found throughout the tropics and subtropics of the Americas, Africa, Asia and Australia. It is easy to propagate by cuttings and I start many more than I can use and give them away to my neighbors. So now I get to see them all over my Neighborhood :)

Hard to believe this is my 100th Blip. I'm trying to find time to Back-Blip 5 weeks worth of photos from my recent Voyage of the Vikings trip. I think there may be a Few Acceptable Images in those 2500 or so shots ;)

Have a Wonderful Week...And a Very Happy Thanksgiving to All our Canadian Friends out there in the Blipiverse!
