Only a Few Blooms

 


After such a long and very hot summer, there weren't many blooms to admire when I was at the garden last Sunday.  I did see one white bloom on the toothpick cactus above and one of the Desert Rose plants had blooms to the right.




























In the section that gets replanted often I found these pretty blooms.  According to Google, these are called willowleaf angelon.  They are pretty blooms.

Hopefully, the hottest part of the summer is over now.  We are still having highs in the high 90's but the mornings and evenings are now a lot more pleasant.

The heat must have been hard on the plants too. Enjoy the fresher air, Sharon.

When the weather is right, the desert really blooms in surprising ways. Next year?

The desert flowers are so beautiful and adhere to the "bloom where you are planted" adage.

The desert flowers are beautiful to see. Glad to hear the weather temps are beginning their descent.
