Thanks to Carol over at May Dreams Gardens for suggesting we post photos of what’s blooming in and around our casas on the 15thish of each month. Be sure to check out everyone’s flower photos on her blog.
As I mentioned, I’ll post photos for you nonbloggers out there tomorrow. You still have time to email your flower pics to me. I hope to see you back here.
Hi! My name is Liza. Welcome to my blog and thanks for visiting! I’m a Midwestern gal now living in Arizona, after many years of living in and owning a plant care business in New Mexico.
Plants are living, breathing creatures, and if they’re indoor plants, they are 100% dependent on human care. They cannot water themselves.
Please let me know if you have questions or if you would like help with your plants or garden. You can reach me at lizatheplantlady (at) gmail (dot) com or follow me on Twitter, Lizawheeler7.
All photos are mine unless otherwise noted. All content is also entirely my hard work. If you’d like to use any content or photos, all you have to do is ask. If you take without asking, you are a thief. And thieves suck. So don’t suck. We have a deal? Good.
The Portulaca – being in a container with no drainage – have been hit particularly hard by the massive rains we’ve had for the last week. They are clinging to life but aren’t looking very good. If they recover, I’ll do a whole post dedicated only to them! I’m glad you liked the Morning Glories, they are so hard to get good photos of (or maybe I’m just bad at that).
I know you’re not supposed to complain about rain in the desert, but seriously, it’s been ridiculous up in here!
Ginny, they are my favorite! I just love them. This year though, they have been very slow to bloom. They’ve been green forever but are just now starting to take off. I have no idea why they’re so late!

Where was the Portulaca? I was told there would be Portulaca pictures.

(Though I should note that I found the morning glory picture especially pleasing.)

Aren’t Cosmos amazing? So dainty and delicate looking and yet so tough!
