This week’s Sunday Stills Monthly Color Challenge is ‘Green.’ See more responses here. One of my favorite spots on the island is Hawai’i Tropical Bioreserve & Garden and I stopped by there again just last week. As luck would have it, I took a few photos – OK, more than 200; I can’t help it. Many of them – OK, all of them – featured some shade of green. It is a tropical garden after all. Here’s a selection.




All sorts of greens, all sorts of patterns!



Going green. That’s what fronds are for!



Why the long faces? things are looking up.



There’s a gecko in two of these photos. There’s probably geckos in all three, but two are visible.
For more information about Hawai’i Tropical Bioreserve & Garden, go to htbg.com.
I love all of these…..those large green leaves are stunning and I love the lizard.

Wonderfully green and I would have taken too many photos as well. Found the other gecko after a while and I usually spot birds and animals quickly. A beautiful place. Thanks for all of the photos as Terri said 🙂

I loved the Hilo Bioreserve when we were there, Graham! I can’t believe it’s been four years! I think this is the most images I have seen in one blog post from you! All that green–I like green when it is so rich it hurts the eyes! I have a green gecko in my media files–they are so cute!

I do an occasional post with many images, but I thought this one was in order. This visit, the gardens were getting a bit of a makeover, some for refreshing, some for dealing with weather damage. It was less jungly, more open. I’ll be interested to see what the ydo with the newly opened areas.
