The ocelot flowers are native to central America but supposedly hardy in our zone…they are called Ocēlōxōchitl  in the Aztec language. We love the name!

  1. Your varied flower garden brings much delight…as do your dear Hitty dolls. I’m so glad you continue to follow them around, bringing us much joy in seeing them in their preferred spots of the moment.

  2. Beautiful and Lovely all photographs and your story dear Hitty Lady, fascinating me as always… Thank you, Love, nia

  3. That is a lovely name, and well suited to those stunning flowers. I’m glad Malarkey and Shenanigan are living up to their names with hand-stands and Jaguar encounters. Your posts are so cheering. Thank you for that.

    • Thanks! Shenanigan and Malarkey arrived from their respective Hitty events in those dresses (which I made) but they have been requesting some more appropriate play clothes so they can save their elegant attire for tea parties.
