We have several HUGE Lantana bushes on our property and we love the pink, orange and yellow flowers that magically appear each year…..

Interestingly, this particular plant is considered a noxious weed in Australia, and our friends were horrified that we actually PLANTED them in our gardens!!
Michael and I call them our “butterfly bushes” because they are often covered with various varieties of winged flyers.
I spent a few minutes taking photos and loved the images that I captured……


This guy even gave me an acrobatic display….

These were all taken with my iPhone, using the holding technique that I described in this post about photographing quilts…..
What is your favorite camera??

Apparently the butterflies love it. Which is a good thing.
I love walking past the bush and watching them all fly out at me.
The butterfly photos are stunning.
Yes it is a shame that lantana causes so many problems here as it is lovely.
I agree Karen. It really is a pretty plant!!!
