I love how at this time of year, the large agave plants capture the falling blooms from the palo verde trees. Their big 'leaves' are perfect for capturing all kinds of things but I think those yellow petals are the prettiest.
The yellow bells are blooming like crazy right now. Those big clusters of blooms are hard for a photographer to resist.
I also love finding a bloom on one of the many toothpick cacti around the garden. That cactus blooms all year long so their pretty blooms can be enjoyed all year long.

Spring is such a nice time when Nature is changing with all the blossoms coming back.
It’s wonderful how the agave and desert rose plants each mark the season in their own way—the agave catching golden petals like a natural sculpture, and the desert roses returning with vibrant blooms after winter care.
Gorgeous colours. I wouldn't mind visiting that garden.
So much beauty in the desert, Sharon.
Most people have no idea how pretty the desert is.
Beautiful flower photos. I really love the first one of the cactus, or is it cacti? Great captures.
I wonder if the agave benefits from catching that fallen vegetation -- maybe as it degrades it feeds the plant. (Especially when there's a bit of rain.)
Absolutely gorgeous.
Very colourful and beautiful.
Desert blooms are stunning and the fact that they survive in that environment makes them even more beautiful.
