Click on photos to enlarge. These charming little arrangements were placed on each of the tables in the waiting room/bar/lounge of the Bravo theater in Ajijic where we went to see a One-Woman presentation of “Shirley Valentine.” It was a wonderful show. The first time I’ve been
to any inside event in a year and a half.

The edge of this field next to the lake was filled with this flower that looks like a datura to me. I will accept being corrected, however.

Sam of Los Perdidos Figured it out! This unusual flower is the bloom of the Pedilantus Bracteatus or “Beautiful Bird Flower Tree.” Thanks, Sam, for solving the mystery. Below was my original plea for a solution to what it is:
This is one of the most unusual succulent blooms I’ve ever seen It looks like a little person is inside with head erect and arms held out in front. The blooms are on the ends of very long stalks. Does anyone know what it is? Of course, I had to buy it along with the planter arrangement it was part of.

Snapped this shot of an unidentified succulent in my friend Dianne’s garden. Luckily, she also gave me a few cuttings so you’ll soon see it in my own garden.
