We visited South America for nearly four years so our flower photos are fairly extensive. Regretably, we were not very successful with our identification efforts so many flowers are pictured without names. If you're able to identify some of these, drop us a line. We'll be sure to acknowledge your help.
Our source of identification: primarily local references and folks with local knowledge.
