Salty Wind Survivors

in our back yard







So many plants will not survive, so we really appreciate the ones that will.

Wow! Vibrant colors. ;D

How pretty. Every time we get a north wind our citrus lose half their leaves. These pictures are really nice and I appreciate what it takes to get these flowers to this level.

Love the geranium Diane!

Back in the day in Mexico you'd see geraniums planted in the gallon-size MJB and Folgers coffee cans.

Cool flowers! They are all pretty and I really love bougainvillea.

I can see the cuttings from your bouganvillea in our yard already. :biggrin:
Nice flowers and nicer photos.

Thanks to everyone for the nice comments. I really appreciate them. Nancy, I think that the geranium is my favorite.

This bouganvillea is doing very well --- a gopher managed to eat all the roots of a white one I really loved. Mr. gopher is now taking a dirt nap!

Diver, you can have cuttings from anything in our yard you want! We have done all the research for you and know definitely what will NOT grow at your place. :-)

Thanks again!

Gorgeous flower shots Diane!! Lighting and composition is perfect!

Nice work, Diane.

DianaT - 1-29-2012 at 09:40 PM

Thanks Ken and Igor. You are both very kind. :yes:

As Ralph mentioned, it is not easy to get them to grow and then I have to argue with them to hold still long enough to take their pictures.

As always your photos are stunning and beautiful.

Wondrous flores, Diana. You inspire my winter seed search.;D
And yep, I'm kinda partial to that geranium today.
