Potted plants

If you walk along the road in Costa Rica, the plants you see growing wild are the same ones we have as houseplants back home. Only bigger. Much bigger. Hibiscus, Passion flower, Birds of paradise and others I can’t name without a guidebook are all around. The rainy season has just ended and it seems to me that everything wild is in bloom. All that to say I’m not quite sure why I drew the potted plants near the cafe when there is a jungle at my doorstep.

    I think I know the answer to why you “drew the potted plants near the cafe when there is a jungle at your doorstep”…
    As you said, it was near “the cafe”. Somehow I think a comfortable chair, table and coffee were involved. Am I right?
