Bird Of Paradise

Sorry buddies, I had nothing else!

I'm not sure, but I think these are cousins of the Bird Of Paradise. They are common in Malaysian gardens and side walks.
“Because the soul is like a flower that folds its petals when dark comes, and breathes not its fragrance into the phantoms of the night.”

― Kahlil Gibran, Spirits Rebellious
