We have here beautiful lightening and great title, I couldn't even think of a better one for this white flower.
Where do you take all this flowers from?

This one was taken in one of my friends tropical garden! He is living two street away from us and I go there every week (since almost 3 years!) to take pictures in his beautiful garden. Even more when there is frost of snow. He also got another garden where he's got a lot of flowers too! So I am very lucky.
I also take pictures of flowers in my own garden, other peoples gardens in the neighbourhood, flower bouquets, and parcs, botanical gardens etc.
But taking pictures in the tropical garden of my friend is like therapy. When I'm in the garden he is at work and I usually stay there for about 1 hour and a half. I forget the rest of the world when I'm shooting. Just great!!!

Would be wonderful to go there and find the place/ one of my roots!

Yeah, you named village "Sawasa" earlier - is it Polish name? Because we don't have such village, maybe you misspelled sth?

Sawade was their name. And they came from a town with that name. But it's probably the old name of the place.
And maybe it's more to the north.

Ah thanks! And such a shame! Have to dig into my cupboards for the information about my great-grandparents!
Would be so nice to see the place where they came from.

It does, doesn't it! Thank for commenting. Yesterday I visited a garden fair in Belgium (wonderful misty weather in the morning and a bit of sunshine in the afternoon) and there I saw these flowers in white and in pink! Flowers in Belgium were almost half the price as they are here in the Netherlands. Very cheap! Like 3 plants for Euro 5 (1 euro is worth a bit more than a US Dollar). So I came back with a big fern plant (green in winter), 3 smaller plants and two quite big butterfly plants! For about 15 Euro!! Unbelievable!
We went there with a bus (garden visiting organisation). Today I'm very very tired because of all the walking we did. Maybe I will ad some pictures.
Do you have garden fairs or garden visiting organisations in the US?
