I know I shouldn't be shocked, but humanity continues to shock me. I noted the lovely Blue Jade Vine we saw at Maui Winery. When we first arrived I went to the restroom. These flowers were on a pergola by the restrooms. I marveled at them and took this first photo below. There was a man and two women admiring them as well. The older of the women told me the name of them and that they are very rare. I took my photo and rejoined John and June back at the Ulupalakua Ranch Market for our lunch. The three of them lingered on and I suppose they were the culprits. I was telling them about the flowers because June likes flowers as much as I do! After our wine tasting and walk around the area we went to the restroom so she could see the flowers. You can look at my photos below to note the difference you will now see!
Before After
Now, who does this? And HOW did they do it? They had to pretty much destroy the stalk to hide it well enough to get it out of the winery area in a bag or wrapped in a sweater or something. You walk right back by the tasting room to leave. PLUS, we picked up a dropped blossom off the ground that was quite fresh and by the next day it was all dried up! So if they had left it for others to see people would still be enjoying it. Instead it is either in the trash right now OR maybe they alone are enjoying the last remnants of the blossoms in water. I just felt disgusted and appalled... Shame on them OR whoever took that lovely growth.
