These pretty pink ones are smaller than some of the other blooms.
The red ones are the most common ones I see in the garden.
The variegated ones are really pretty. I can't say if I like one more than another. To me they are all such pretty plants that seem to thrive in our desert heat.
I did see something that surprised me. I found one desert rose plant that was actually planted in the ground. I was talking with another member who was also admiring this plant and she said this is new. The garden thinks there is enough protection in this spot that it should be able to survive any winter frost that we might get. I'll keep my eye on this one.

Beautiful flowers, Sharon!
That is a stout specimen.
They are beautiful flowers, Sharon.
What beautiful flowers. At the farmer's market where I work, our take-a-penny dishes are the Franciscan Desert Rose china pattern.
They are such pretty plants. I'll be curious to hear how that one does in the winter! (It's a bit like our avocado, in a sheltered alcove.)
