My plumeria tree had barely produced a few blooms when a strong wind blew this petal down like an offering to me. It’s nice to have it back starting to leaf out and bloom.

They poke their heads through every crack.
We pull them out, but they come back.
What rule of nature is to blame

Per your request, here are images of the entire Echeveria plant with the bloom spike. Actually, there are two blooming echeverias shown. One is 6 inches across, the other 7 inches. To see a closeup of the bloom, go HERE.
I’ve passed this second-story hideaway at the junction of two of the busiest streets in Ajijic hundreds of times, always wishing traffic would stop or that I had my camera out. This time, it happened…but I only had time enough to squeeze off one shot. The flowers and bright colors and brickwork almost make one overlook the ugly jumble of overhead wires.
