Down a stretch of rural highway in the town of St Marys, Georgia, just past the Bloody Bucket Tavern and right before Crooked River State Park sits the one-of-a-kind Big Wheel RV Park, my sojourn for the past month.
My last week here has welcomed the early blooming of several exotic and native flowers lovingly planted and tended around the park.
Blooms in February! What a special treat: the bounty of Big Wheel’s flora.
Wild Georgia Jasmine
Red Bottle Brush Blooms
Eucalyptus Reaching For the Sky
Bromeliads Cluster Around a Tree
Pink Camelia And Honey Bee (notice the little pollen “bucket”on its hind leg)
Trumpet Flower Bloom
White Camelia
Inside A Trumpet Flower
I am told that the best is yet to come but I will have to take their word for it cause soon I’ll be packing up my little home on wheels and rolling down the road.
Love, Annie
Hi Annie! Great shots – what kind of camera do you use? Nice to see flowers. It’s cold, gray and snowy here.
Thank you, Alice! I was thinking of my northern friends when I took them with my Olympus.
Hang in there. Spring is coming!
I just love the Red Bottle Brush. Beautiful, I have never seen one before. Nice pictures.
The honey bees are loving it too!
Pictures so lovely I can smell the blooms, thanks for sharing!
My first time ever seeing and smelling jasmine in bloom! Thank you!
Must have smelled amazing there!
It was nice breathing the scent of jasmine intermixed with pine as I rode my bike.
