We were in San Diego last month and I came across this amazing garden and wanted to share with those of you who are creative:

and to bring more beauty to the table, here are some of my babies here at home:
This one might be flowering tomorrow? It smells atrocious when it blooms:
This one is in a ceramic boot:
and this one I don't know the name of but I really like it. Close up the variations of green make it look like a snake!

Someone put a lot of time into that, beautiful.BajaBlanca - 9-30-2017 at 07:05 AM
thanks Tom! I so love working in the garden.
The flower does not seem to be opening up completely...weird.
I do have 3 huge white queen of the night flowers blooming today that are so pretty!woody with a view - 9-30-2017 at 10:48 AM
Blanca, that rock work was awesome! We're thinking about tearing out our small front yard's grass patches and doing a decomposed granite with cactus.
Now we've got more to ponder....... Your summer blooms are amazing as well.BajaBlanca - 9-30-2017 at 02:35 PM
if you do it, post some pictures because I love that rock garden in the shot.surabi - 9-30-2017 at 08:37 PM
Nice photos. Don't know if you are aware, the top photo of your plants is a carnivorous plant- that's why the flower smells so bad, to attract
insects, which it then consumes.
Brown flowers

When we bought our house in Anchorage, there was a bed of brown flowers that we were told were Chocolate Lily's. Neat, I had never seen brown
flowers! They smelled like cat sh*t!yumawill - 10-3-2017 at 12:28 PM

That rock work was totally awesome and creative. I would love to have that in our place in Ensenada.BajaBlanca - 10-4-2017 at 09:19 PM
