Tiny purple flowers on a vine that I found today.
I’m not sure what made me look down on the ground but I’m glad I did. We have a rocky bank by the villas that we cleared some weeks ago and now there are many tiny clumps of creeping vines that are like a ground cover. Miniature little flowers with pointed petals are blooming all over and they are so pretty.
These little flowers are really quite lovely and if you didn't look closely, you'd miss them
I haven’t been able to come up with a name for them. I also found what I think is a variety of Creeping Day Flower in a very pretty blue. Some seeds must have blown in and they started to grow under one of my coconut palms.
Tiny, unique looking blooms of the Creeping Day flower.
Several months ago, I came across a plant with pale white flowers at Harbour Club Villas that I identified as a Creeping Day Flower. This one has blue flowers and the same leaf structure so I’m assuming it is a variety of the same plant. Again such small flowers that under normal circumstances you’d miss.
Amazing how many small low to the ground vines there are here in the Turks and Caicos Islands
Keep a close eye out for these miniature flowering vines. They are exquisite with their delicate blooms.
