This hibiscus blooms once in a blue moon and usually only one bloom. Luckily I caught it this time!!!

Milk Thistle: For Cee’s FOTD Sept 3, 2023

Although I thought this was a thistle, I couldn’t find it by Googling it and my plant identifier said it wasn’t a flower!  Finally I took a photo of my photo and reduced it in size and sharpened it and put it through the plant identifier again and sure enough, milk thistle!  All in all I spent nearly an hour trying to post and identify. Crazy.

Another Glorious Hibiscus: FOTD Aug 30, 2023

Yesterday this flower was a bud. Today, it has spread out in all its glory.  For those who asked how large the one the other day was, I promised to measure the next one. This one is about 7 1/2 inches wide.

Wildflowers: FOTD Aug 27, 2023

 

This photo was taken in October on the way to Tapalpa. The flowers may not be as profuse this year because of the lack of rain. Perhaps I’ll go see!

Silk Floss Tree, FOTD Aug 26, 2023

 

Silk Floss Tree

This tree popped up in the arroyo a block from my house a couple of years ago.  It is right next to the street, so I see it every time I leave my house. It produces huge pods full of kapok.
