What's Blooming

My Desert Rose was a much more prolific bloomer when potted. I am going to take the hint and repot this one.

White Bougainvillea, this color bouggy is highly underrated, the picture does not do it justice.


I purchased three Amaryllis just before Christmas, two of which have just decided to grace me with their stunning blooms. It was well worth the wait.



My little red bougainvillea, finally throwing out a few blooms.


Poinsettia


No matter how I try, I still can't seem to find any green.


My second store bought Amaryllis 'Red Lion'


The Bougainvilleas seem to be the star of the show this month.

Wow...I just love your desert rose and your bougainvilleas. I envy your climate because of all the tropicals you can grow outside all year. It is so tiresome for a tropical plant lover like me to have to bring tender plants inside for the winter.

Hope you have a Happy Valentine's Day!

Thanks for the post Jon. Yes it is great having one less thing to worry about in my garden. I have enough, trying to find ways to get rid of a white fly infestation which seems intent on dampening my gardening spirit.

Very gorgeous bogainvilleas, one of my favourite flowers.

It' funny, my Adenium blooms better in the ground. Was your plant grown from seed? I'm from Bermuda and recognize many of your plants. I like your dogs, too.

A great garden full of wonderful, tropical beauties.
