I remember you posting your cactus last year! How time flies :) It looks as if it has more flowers on it this year?

I will take a pic of the daisies in my front garden. They only bloom in the spring and look a picture at the moment :)

Here are the daisies! These are on the wall in my front garden. They are called, Cerastrum Silver Carpet :)

This is my Ceanothus on the opposite wall!

In the back garden, I have Angelina Sedum in flower. This only blooms for about 3 weeks in the spring. When it goes off it looks awful, so I have to pull it up :(

All are beautiful! I have no flowers at the moment. My irises have all bloomed and faded. I should have gotten pictures.

You have such a gorgeous garden, Wendy!! I planted, from seed, some sunflower and zinnias the other day and they are just starting to pop up out of the ground :).

Here's a weird one!

Thanks Mare :) I am just putting all my summer bedding plants in at the moment. When they all start to bloom, I will take some pics :)

Woah! That is an unusual one Mare. It has a lovely flower on it!

We don't have any cactus but we do have a beautiful crepe myrtle.

So pretty Alice!!! Crepe Myrtle is one of my favorites!!!

I LOVE Crepe Myrtle! Not something I see a lot of around here, I think we are too hot. It always amazes me when our cactus bloom in the middle of summer with 110 degrees of heat! The flowers will only open in the early morning, for one to two days..then, they are done. The bees love them and I've noticed the hummingbirds also enjoy this treat.

Oh I didn't know humming birds like them too. I can't see your pic Mare :( I guess because I don't have a fb account. When I click the link it says leaving fb.

Kendra, the pic of your crape myrtle on the other thread is beautiful as well. I bet it has grown a bit since you took it.

No, Alice, FB has nothing to do with that. It's my fault, I erased a bunch of photos from my photobucket and the ones I had posted, were lost in the mix :(

Oh okay, I'm sure you will have another pic of something beautiful from your garden to post again.
