Twinkle, twinkle, little star.

in #photography6 years ago

A while ago we went for a trip to Quinta da Regaleira (Sintra, Portugal). A big, big, well maintained garden with such amazing plants and a twisted paths around. A botanic garden like place with flowers I don't see blooming anywhere else.

This is one of them. The flowers look like a Sedum ones, but the plant is pretty big, leafy and bushy. Even the stem is a lot taller than I am used to see. Maybe 30 cm in height total.

I couldn't resist to take photos of those tiny little stars. They were in full bloom at that time in May and they really enjoyed the cooler weather. Seems that Sintra has it's own micro climate and get more clouds and rain than the rest of Portugal. It is like a jungle :) Wonderful place!

Beautiful flower picture. what is the name of this flower?

Crassula multicava, aka. fairy crassula. Also native to my country

Oh geez... yep :D
And I was looking under Sedum. Such a pretty little thing!

Sedum and Crassula do have very similar flowers.
