Nature's Jewels

I called today's post nature's jewels because I think these lovely delicate flowers are like earings. They also resemble little birds or perhaps colourful flying fish.

They are really delicate and small and easily overlooked but well worth a closer look to see the speckled pink flowers nestled against the lush green foliage.

The plant is a variety of LAMIACEAE called Bollota pseudo-dictamus that goes by the common name of False Dittany.
