Hey look! Pretty flowers!
First, on Lady Evermore, an Aeschynanthus:
Not the greatest photos, but such a chill houseplant. Low maintenance, fast growing. I love those bright red blooms – you can seem them from a long way away.
The Echeveria is still impressing me with its funky blooms:
They were an unexpected surprise. I had no idea what the blooms would look like.
Outside, it must be getting closer to fall, because the Zauschneria (California Fuchsia) has its first bloom:
There should be lots more in the coming months. I’m really glad I decided to add the plant to my container garden – I love fall-blooming plants. I’ll be cutting that Bougainvillea back so the Zauschneria can really shine.
Also while I was away, the Portulaca exploded with cheerful pink blooms (the first shot was in the morning, the second later in the day when the flowers fully opened):
Those little guys thrill me no end!
Man, I love flowers! They make me smile every time I see them.

Portaluca were some of my mom’s favorites. They’re were always multi colored pots of it around. I need top plan on getting some next year.
