Little Miracles

This plant is of special significance to me because it grew in profusion from hanging baskets on my porch in Boulder Creek, Ca. For the eighteen years I’ve been in Mexico, I have from time to time looked for it in viveros because it has such a special significance to me, but if it has been there, I’ve overlooked it.  But a few days ago, as I was coming back from my front gate, I noticed this bloom growing from a pot. I have no idea how it got there, but it is the Queen’s Tears Bromeliad I’ve been looking for for eighteen years. Little miracles occur every day. What a pleasure that sometimes they make themselves so obvious that we can’t overlook them.

      They are bromeliads so grow better in humid areas. Don’t you remember them growing from my hanging baskets outside the door from the dining room and in front of kitchen windows in Boulder Creek? They grew there like weeds! Loved the rainy season.
