You may think this interesting bloom is coming from the Hen and Chicks plant in the third photo, but actually it is coming from the frilled variety in the fourth picture. Its scientific name is Echeveria Shaviana E. Walther, commonly known as the Mexican Hen and Chicks.

This was another surprise popup in my planter near the hot tub. Must have planted it long ago and it reappeared. Love the tiny little gold flowers bursting out of the black bee bees in its center.
Another beauty from this prolific bush. A sunny new greeting every day.
Okay, I cheated by not showing you how tiny they are. I was just amazed at how beautiful they were when magnified. If you want to see them closer up, go HERE.
This is actually a huge spindly bush that grows up from my lot below..at least 15 feet high. It looks weedy from farther away and today all the flowers are closed, but looks beautiful in this photo, I think. And the other closer up photos. Link above.

I’m holding back one photo until after someone guesses correctly what flowers these are. A remarkable difference between them, but they are all the same flower. Can anyone name them?
