The last Saturday in February is the last day of the month. Let's say goodbye to Winter Snow Storms too!
Come sit in the shade and let's watch for the Hummingbirds to arrive. We have had a beautiful week of Spring weather in the upper 70's and very low 80's.
Every Hummingbird is beautiful and so fascinating to watch. I can hardly wait to see the first one of the year.
There are so many varieties from all over the world. And they travel so far twice a year.
I have plants that were under plastic that are already blooming and waiting for these unusual creatures.
In about 5 more days, we should have rain! Wouldn't it be neat to see these tiny Blessings from God this coming week.
It is Friday and it was a perfect morning starting at 48°.
My Christmas or Easter Cactus is blooming in between! I have 3 pots in the house.
One is Peach colored bloom, this one is yellow and the third one that did bloom a few blooms in January has white, red, and bright pink flowers with blooms just putting out again.
This Orchid is fairly new and the blooms are just gorgeous in color.
When they first put out buds, I get so excited to see what color or design it is because they only bloom about twice a year but the blooms last for months.
You can see the green plant to the far left and the pretty pink leaf plant. They both put out a bloom sinimar to a Peace Lily!
