Beauty is blooming all over the islands!<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the best parts of traveling is appreciating natural beauty, and a country\u2019s flowers are some of the first beauties any traveler will recognize.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Caribbean is especially bursting with color, whether that\u2019s a<\/span> Caribbean hibiscus<\/span> or a <\/span>Caribbean parrot tulip,<\/span> so it\u2019s a prime stop for flower enthusiasts!<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Hibiscus
Hibiscus are ubiquitous throughout the Caribbean.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Hibiscus: <\/b>Bahamas<\/b><\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

Some flowers seem to shout \u201ctropical\u201d more than others, and the hibiscus is at the top of the list! In warm climates like the Bahamas you\u2019ll see these flowers growing all over, and you can\u2019t miss their large circular flowers and brilliant colors! Hibiscus can be pink, white, yellow, red, or purple, so it can make the perfect accent to any room, table, or even your hair.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, they bloom all year long and their petals are even edible! If you come across hibiscus ice cream or ice tea, be sure to give it a try.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Yellow
Dahlias are so well liked in Mexico that they’re the national flower!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Dahlia: <\/b>Mexico<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

With over 30,000 native flowers blooming all throughout Mexico, the dahlia stands out from a competitive crowd as the country\u2019s national flower. With roots stemming back even before the Aztecs, this sweet, simple flower was admired for more than just its beauty. It was once used in ancient Mexico as medicine for all kinds of ailments!<\/span><\/p>\n

There are over a thousand types of dahlias in existence today, ranging from tall cactus dahlias to the small, decorative varieties. The flower is the perfect symbol of Mexico\u2019s rich history and diversity.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Pink
The rose is only one of the national flowers of St. Lucia.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Rose and Marguerite: <\/b>St. Lucia<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

Why have one national flower when you can have two? For St. Lucia, both the rose and the marguerite flowers represent an important part of the nation\u2019s culture. There are two floral societies that some Saint Lucians belong to\u2014and the names of these societies? La Rose and La Marguerite!<\/span><\/p>\n

The famous rose is bright and striking, while the marguerite is small with tightly packed purple petals. Each year, the country hosts festivals in honor of these flowers. With blooms so beautiful, it\u2019s easy to see why!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Black
One of the most unique orchids you’ll find.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Black Orchid: Belize<\/a>\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

The orchid has existed as far back as 100 million years, and is known to be one of the oldest, if not <\/span>the <\/span><\/i>oldest, types of flowers in the world. The black orchid of Belize, also known as the clamshell orchid, is a uniquely whimsical variety.<\/span><\/p>\n

The flowers bloom year round on trees and are known for their distinctive shape that some say look like a 5-legged octopus! Since they grow in damp areas specifically, they\u2019re a beauty that can take a little seeking out!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Red
The “parrot” tulip is named for its feathery, colorful petals.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Caribbean Parrot Tulip: Aruba, Curacao,<\/b> St. Maarten\u00a0<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n

Caribbean parrots, a variety of tulips, earn their name for their feathery petals and tropical colors of yellow, orange, and bright pink. These large, flamboyant tulips bloom on tall stems, reaching high and soaking up all the gorgeous sunlight found in the islands of Aruba, Cura\u00e7ao, and St. Maarten.<\/span><\/p>\n

Much like their namesakes, parrot tulips make a big statement, and are truly a natural work of art.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Beauty is blooming all over the islands!
