Flowers from Mexico in March 2007

On our trip to Mexico in March we saw many unfamiliar and amazing flowers and flowering trees, but it wasn't always easy to tell if they were planted or native. I decided since they were all so unusual for me, a Canadian, that I could only learn from identifying all of them. I wanted to publish all in one bunch-but I'm having trouble with many of them.
