These flowers were growing in the Sonnenberg Garden in Canandaigua, New York. I found them so Victorian in nature.
After a storm in the night I found one of the Boston Ferns on the ground. When I picked it up this butterfly was clinging on it. I placed the fern on the porch table and it would open its wings for a few seconds...just enough to take a photo. It stayed on the fern for 2 days and then flew away.
I grew up with succulent plants. San Diego is a great place to have them. I like how the sun brightened up the red on the leaves.
