  • Tropical bouquet of flowers in the bathroom of Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden near Hilo. Anthurium andraeanum (Flamingo Flower) is an ornamental garden plant and houseplant, native to shady, humid tropical forests of Colombia and Ecuador. Projecting from a bright red heart-shaped spathe (a type of bract), the spike of its long white spadix has a yellow tip. Delightful paths and boardwalks take you through a soothing green tropical wonderland endowed with streams (Alakahi Stream, Boulder Creek), waterfalls (Onomea Falls) and oceanfront vistas across Onomea Bay. Purchased in 1977 and transformed over 8 backbreaking years by Dan and Pauline Lutkenhouse, the garden opened to the public in 1984 and was donated to a nonprofit trust in 1995. On the Big Island, a few minutes north of Hilo off of Route 19, take the narrow four-mile Pepe'ekeo Scenic Drive which winds along coastal cliffs, across one-lane wooden bridges over picturesque waterfalls, to reach this peaceful oasis. The garden grows over 2000 plant species, representing more than 125 families and 750 genera, with diverse palms (nearly 200 species), heliconias (80+ species) and bromeliads (80+ species). Address: 27-717 Old Mamalahoa Highway, Papaikou, Hawaii 96781, USA.

  • Amaryllis belladonna flowers (native to South Africa) bloom on Tasmania, Australia. The plant is commonly called a Naked Lady because blooms appear after the leaves have died down. The flower is usually white with crimson veins, but pink or purple also occur naturally. Each bulb grows one or two leafless stems 30–60 cm tall bearing a cluster of 2 to 12 funnel-shaped flowers. Each flower is 6–10 cm diameter with six tepals (three outer sepals and three inner petals with similar appearance). Amaryllis belladonna has several strap-shaped, green leaves, 30–50 cm long and 2–3 cm broad, arranged in two rows. The leaves grow in autumn or early spring in warm climates depending on the onset of rain, and die down by late spring. The bulb remains dormant until late summer flowering. The plant is neither frost-tolerant nor tropical-tolerant, since it requires a dry resting period between leaf growth and flower spike production.

  • The Martuljek mountain group rises high above the town of Gozd Martuljek ("Martuljek Forest," formerly known as Rute) in the Julian Alps, Kranjska Gora, Upper Carniola, Slovenia. Left to right are the following peaks: Siroka pec (2497 meters/8192 feet); Oltar (2621 m); and the pyramid of Spik ("Spike," 2472 m/8110 feet); all within Triglav National Park (in Slovene: Triglavski narodni park, TNP). Historically, four linguistic and cultural groups of Europe have met in Slovenia: Slavic, Germanic, Romance, and Uralic. In 1991, Slovenia declared full sovereignty from Yugoslavia. In the 2002 census, 83% considered themselves Slovenes. Today, Slovenia is a member of the European Union, the Eurozone, the Schengen area, NATO and OECD. Per capita, Slovenia is the richest Slavic nation-state. The panorama was stitched from 11 overlapping photos.

  • Spiked shield. The Culloden Battlefield visitor center is run by the National Trust for Scotland, near Inverness, United Kingdom, Europe. The Battle of Culloden on 16 April 1746 was part of a religious civil war in Britain and was the final confrontation of the Jacobite rising of 1745. It was the last pitched battle on British soil, and in less than an hour about 1500 men were slain – more than 1000 of them Jacobites. After an unsuccessful Highland charge against the government lines, the Jacobites were routed and driven from the field. Today, strong feelings are still aroused by the battle and the brutal aftermath of weakening Gaelic culture and undermining the Scottish clan system. Three miles south of Culloden village is Drumossie Moor, often called Culloden Moor, site of the battle. Culloden is in Scotland 5 miles east of Inverness, off the A9/B9006, directed by brown signs.
