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.
pedilanthus lady slipper
We had rain, cool mornings, nice weather, nights sitting out on the patio and did I mention rain?
Had almost forgot what a real spring was like.
The Pedlianthus 'Lady's Slipper' are blooming- such unique subtle blooms.

The Philippine Violets are blooming,

san pedro cactus bud
The San Pedro Cactus are budding up- can't wait for them to open!!
beach vitex
The Beach Vitex are blooming- hands down a favorite of mine- I love the soft green with the soft purple 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.
