What's That You Say? Rain?


dwarf barbados cherry
 It's true.  We have had rain the last few days.  Some areas more than others but we have been having it and almost daily the last few days.  It has been nice.  Not going to lie.  Here are a few shots of what I thought was looking pretty this week.  The Dwarf Barbados Cherry look as beautiful as ever.

 The Pedlianthus 'Lady Slipper' is one that I never tire of.  The blooms are so simple yet intricate.  This has been a long time favorite of mine.   
Belindas dream rose
 The Belinda's Dream Roses are bursting with blooms- if only this were a scratch and sniff picture!
vitex chaste tree
 The Vitex, Chaste Trees, are blooming away.  
bougainvillea
 The Bougainvilleas have been getting a lot of attention from the butterflies.

The Wedelia are loaded with blooms.  I like the bright yellow against the bright green.

 Here's a shot of a little guy getting a drink.  He just sat there and let me shoot away then flew off.  
My friends came in for a visit this week from Houston- we had a great time walking around and looking at everything.  Here is a shot of us in front of the office.  Love girl days- had a lot of fun laughing and catching up- wish they lived here!!  Chris (the one in the middle) is the one that makes all the cute jewelry we have inside.
Hope everyone is having a great September - I do believe fall might actually be coming....

June- already????

I mean seriously.  Where does the time go?
agapanthus
 I can't believe it is June already.  Spring was so nice here this year.  I think the first time I can remember in a long time that we actually even HAD a spring.
The Agapanthus are in full bloom - love the big burst of blooms.

vivero growers nursery
We have baby birds in various nests, hummingbirds buzzing around left and right, a few varieties of bees pollenating the flowers little lizards lounging in the sun, it has been simply wonderful.
Thought I'd post a few pics of all that has been happening as of late here at the nursery.
