Plants That Have Grabbed my Attention in Rwanda

It doesn't matter where we are, the plants grab my attention. 
These looked like the angel trumpets my mom was trying to get to bloom in Texas.
I love the spiral in the petals. 
There are flowers everywhere here.
The sides of the neighborhood roads are practically gardens. 
This looks like a hibiscus with variegated leaves. 
These look like bottle brushes. 
I liked how the succulent was holding water in the center though it hadn't rained for over a day at this point.
These people flowers grow on a tree outside my classroom window.
I saw this walking home from school. 
On the land where they are building a new school. The geometric shapes were interesting. 
The rain made the lilies bloom again. 
They have polka dots! 
I am enjoying the "hot" season that hasn't gotten out of the eighties during the hottest part of the day. To these Texans it has felt like constant spring or fall since we got here.
