My garden is aflowering again and I thought I would share some of the awesomeness:
This is a beautiful cactus mosaic made by Feathers for me !
CAN ANYONE IDENTIFY THIS ONE?
I BELIEVE THIS IS CALLED GRANDIFLORA:
TINY FLOWERS ON THE CACTUS THAT CAME ALL THE WAY FROM SAN MIGUEL DE ALLENDE TO LA BOCANA:
AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME (AND THE LAST) THAT THIS AGAVE ATTENUATA WILL FLOWER. THE FUNNIEST PART IS THAT THE INSECTS TAKE TURNS BUZZING AROUND IT-
FLIES(WHO KNEW), THEN BUTTERFLIES, THEN BEES AND FINALLY DRAGONFLIES.......
THERE ARE MORE - SURE HOPE YOU ENJOY THEM AS MUCH AS I AM.

The long stalk with orange/red flowers almost looks like an aloe- I have one in my yard that is similar.

I will hunt under aloes whale-ista
blackwolfmt -the flat leafed one I believe is a Platycerium bifurcatum - (staghorn)
MORE FLOWERS - SO LES CALLS ME OUTSIDE THE OTHER DAY AND SAYS THERE IS A FLOWER AT THE EDGE OF OUR PROPERTY. THAT IS WHERE I ISOLATE PLANTS THAT SEEM
VERY DISEASED. LOOK WHAT WE FOUND! I HADN'T WATERED IT IN AGES BUT IT RAINED RECENTLY:
IT MAY GO DOWN AS ONE OF THE UGLIEST PLANTS I OWN, WHO'D'VE GUESSED THE FLOWER WOULD BE GORGEOUS?
COMMON ALL OVER THE PLACE BUT I ADORE THIS PLANT:
FEATHERS GAVE ME THIS ONE ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO ?? LOOK AT YOUR BABY NOW! FIRST TIME IT HAS FLOWERED FOR ME:
THERE IS A PLANT CALLED STRING OF PEARLS HERE, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ARRANGEMENT - ALSO IN BLOOM:
I FOUND THIS ON FACEBOOK - I DO NOT KNOW WHO TO CREDIT BUT I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT:
AND THE CAPTION,WRITTEN BY CICERO, READS: IF YOU HAVE A GARDEN AND A LIBRARY, YOU HAVE EVERYTHING YOU NEED.
I LOVE MY GARDEN .... I TRULY DO.
