Something New

This lovely flower has been 17 months in the making.

My succulents certainly did take a beating during the hail storm on Saturday afternoon.

It’s been a long time since we’ve had any decent rain, and yes, that’s 38 mm (1.4 inches) in my rain gauge.

I have Anthuriums flowering everywhere at the moment.

Just imagine how tickled pink I was to discover I’ve not one, but two pineapples growing in my front garden.

Yes, this flower deserves much more than a ‘Flower of the Day’ status.

September 1, 2019, and finally our long (cold) winter is over.

Warmer weather, the promise of light rain, slightly longer days. Spring is on its way, as is the promise of lots of blooms.
