Blooming Today — An Inventory

At mom's request. . .


Above, the big guys: Pink Abutilon, Sunflower (under the birdfeeder), and Camelia Yuletide (performing well since right before the holidays).



The daisy-like fellers: African Daisies (purple, next to pond and out front), Euryops (upper-right), and Gazania.



Some succulent action. I've forgotten the exact types: Aloe relative (upper right), String of pearls (lower left), Warty-leafed paddle-type guy (lower right).



Four kinds of Geranium.



Teeny cluster flowering guys (clockwise from upper left): Sea Lavender, Jade, Lantana, and Sweet Alyssum.



Edibles: Rosemary, Lime tree, Beets, and Cilantro.



Pink: Dianthus, Kalanchoe, Ice plant, and Sage.



Leaning to the right: Bird of Paradise, Mexican Sage, and Paddle Plant.



And leaning to the left: Bacopa Snowflake, Cape Honeysuckle, and — ugh, groan — Clover.

  1. WOW ! just like the arboretum. I love them all so much I have tears for loving U and them.
    My favs are the: Mex and pink sage, all the geraniums, the allysum (on the curb?), all the daisies, and of course the bird of paradise. Heck just all of them are perfect what a treat to also see the lime tree. MY fav. limes came from that tree.
