This is such an unusual Canna. I’ve never seen one either this shape or this color, but I love it. Rita has promised to give me a starter when she thins them out.

Palm, bamboo, plumeria, pistachio and setting sun! Not a flower in the bunch, but there is the potential for flowers on the plumeria. Just couldn’t resist sharing the sunset.
These bromeliads are air plants that grow in profusion on high line wires in Mexico. Their sticky seeds are carried here by perching birds and seem to thrive on whatever nourishes them in the air. Click on photos to enlarge.

The time finally came to move this 20 or more year-old Agave from its pot on the terrace down to the sculpture garden in the lot below. I have watched countless hummingbirds feed at its flowers as I sat at my writing desk over the years and will miss it, but it has long outgrown its pot which you can see above had to be shattered to remove the plant. Good bye old friend. Here it has made its way all the way around the house and is about to exit from the front door to make its way down the street to the lower lot.

I discovered this photo of Diego smelling the flowers and I couldn’t find any evidence I’d ever posted it in my blog, so couldn’t resist posting it. R.I.P. Diego. We miss you!!!!
