Banana Bloom FOTD Aug 17, 2023

 

 

This was a surprise find in my garden the other day. I know what it is. Do you? I’ll tell after five guesses!!!! It is huge, by the way.  At least a foot long.  Actually, the second two people guessed correctly. It is a banana bloom! I’m going to have bananas this year!!!

Ghost Hibiscus: For FOTD, Aug 5, 2023

This hibiscus doesn’t bloom nearly as often as the others, perhaps because Zoe eats them? At any rate, it is a real treat when it does bloom. Presently, two flowers. They’ll be gone by tomorrow so wanted to share them.

Agave Blossom Studies: FOTD Aug 4, 2023

Hummingbirds love these blooms, as do I. There is a huge aloe just outside the window where my desk is located and I love watching new ones open each day and the visits of various hummers to sample them. Do you have a favorite? I culled out about half of the shots I took but couldn’t cull farther. Nor could I pick a star of the show.
