One reason Xandari has so many butterflies is they have a huge variety of flowers in their many gardens, one of the best I’ve visited all over Costa Rica. I’m working on the Flower Sub-gallery of this Trip Gallery and it looks like now it will have 35 species of flowers identified! 🙂 Here is just one, the Tiger Flower – Tigridia pavonia (Wikipedia link) with many names and stories about some of the varieties in Middle America.

¡Pura Vida!
And see my many flower photos in the Flora & Forest Galleries! 🙂
