Desert Willow

-

Inu and I were out in the desert today and came across a desert willow in bloom.
-
Of course technically it is not a willow at all. It is of the Catalpa Family (bignoniaceae) and it's official name is Chilopsis linearis.

And the flower looks much like an orchid. But I don't care...it is beautiful and that is the main thing.
