Happy February GBBD 2017! I say it all the time but where does the time go?
The weather here has been just plain crazy. Hot, cold, freezing, meeting all kinds of records for coldest then hottest days of the year on record- just typical Texas weather....
The Aloe marlothii is blooming which to me is always a magnificent bloom spike.
The echeveria are enjoying the cooler temperatures and showing off all their colors.
The Agave 'Blue Glow' is using the sunshine to show off it's beautiful edges.
The succulents have been blooming away which is always fun to watch.
Things are blooming which is nice cause it gives the bees and butterflies things to visit.
Hope you have a wonderful Garden Blogger Bloom Day- make sure and visit May Dreams Gardens which has links to gardens all over!
You have such a variety of blooms for February and I especially like your captures of the Aloe marlothii bloom spike and Echeveria. We just got over a significant snow here and it has been a very unpredictable winter with lows in the 20's to highs in the 50's. There are some subtle signs of spring!
ReplyDeleteWe have a few signs here as well- it goes back and forth- just crazy. 80's one day, 20s next. Texas...
DeleteI hope to come to Austin some day to see the blooms there in person, again. Thanks for joining in for bloom day!
ReplyDeleteWould love to meet you! And thanks for hosting!! I love participating!
DeleteYou have beautiful blooms in your garden at this time of year! Love the echeveria!

ReplyDeleteHa ha bees bottom. I thought it came out cute - thanks!
DeleteLove them all! So many great ideas to add to my garden, so I'll see ya soon!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteWhat a fantastic photo of the Blue Glow - wow! Just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteThanks! They are so pretty when the sun hits them.
DeleteWow, such exotic flowers! You capture them well. I especially like the light in the second image and the tight composition.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I took that with my phone. I was taking a quick picture to show a friend what it looked like and then really ended up liking the photo. Love accidental shots.
DeleteLots of pretty things! I often think that the term global warming doesn't quite describe what we're really facing. The weather seems to fluctuate wildly and isn't just warmer.
