In a few days, our little fishhook cactus will produce five more little pink flowers for our viewing and photo-op enjoyment. Click on the image to enlarge.
Flowers
Last Saguaro Flower of Summer
I believe this is the last of the summer saguaro flowers on our giant cactus. We were very fortunate to have had so many flowers after the cactus crew transplanted our beautiful saguaro in May. Click on the image to enlarge.
Yellow Asian Lily
I took this photo of an Asian lily in the little bathroom bud vase. Very pretty, don’t you think? Click on the image to enlarge.
Happy Peanut Cactus
These six peanut cactus flowers opened up today just in time for the holiday weekend. Click on the image to enlarge.
More Red Bird of Paradise
Our little Red Bird of Paradise shrubs in the courtyard are getting really pretty with new flowers every day. This is a shot of the second bush that has flowers opening. We expect that there will be more because these grow fast in the hot summer and go dormant in the winter. Next year they should have way more flowers (I hope). Click on the image to enlarge.
Red Gerbera
We did our grocery shopping for the Fourth of July weekend yesterday. As I passed the flower concession in the supermarket, I put some nice red Gerbera daisies in the cart. This one is in the little bathroom. You can see part of my beautiful framed mirror in the out-of-focus background. Click on the image to enlarge.
