The flower is too pretty, who would believe that a vine with pretty flower like this will bear a warty looking fruit and with bitter taste.

ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I have never seen or heard of an ampalaya flower. It is a lovely shade of yellow. Thank you for stopping to visit me.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very delicate little flower. I was just looking at bitter melons in the grocery store yesterday. I ended up not buying one, but I would like to try one one of these days. (I've never had one before.)

It always amazes me that such a beautiful flower can come from a fruit or vegetable plant. Thank you very much for sharing with Today's Flowers. I am sorry I haven't been by before but I have had family staying with us this past week, and spent very little time on the computer. Have a great weekend!
