Spring Garden

Spring has sprung here on California’s central coast. My urban container garden is getting an early start this year.

The clivia’s budding

& I woke to find that this little succulent had burst into flower

& the dwarf lilac that I’d given up for dead had shot out little leaves overnight. Nature rocks!

Hey, my cactus is really happy! It put on it's own little show this week. Here's a three day time lapse.....

Day 1

They're super fragrant & have cool details.

This is the first year that it's produced more than one flower. 

Here's what it looked like last year, & the story behind it.
