Pua Melia ~ A MonoMad Post

in #monomad5 years ago

I'm posting these images of plumeria flowers for the daily #MonoMad photo contest created by @brumest and curated by @monochromes. Do they smell as sweet in black and white?

The Hawaiians call these flowers pua melia and they are iconic of the islands, whether worn around your neck in a lei, or behind an ear as an adornment. Be careful there though...behind the left ear means you're taken, behind the right, you're available.
