Thursday in the Garden with Artemisia

Hi I thought I would show you the flowers today.

This cactus is blooming. I don't know the name of the cactus, but the flowers are very pretty.

Mommy planted it with the pink Kalanchoe and another cactus.

The other cactus hangs down, sorry I don't know it's name either.

A closeup of the pretty flower.

I wish the flowers had lasted longer. They only bloomed for ONE day.

I thinks all these flowers look pretty together.


Mommy's herb bed right after she transplanted the Cilantro. Daddy built the raised bed for her last year. He is making another raised bed like it in the Butterfly Garden.

Daddy thinks the Cilantro stinks.

The Redbud Tree. I am halfway to Daddy's shop when I reach it. I has to run real fast so boogers don't get me. There are some big birds like owls that could gobble me up.

I thinks I will go back in now and take a nap, would you like to join me.

What a good little tour guide you are! The thought of big birdies is scaring me! Maybe Fenris can escort you to keep you safe!

You have a very pretty garden!! Be careful outside because I wouldn't want a booger to get you. Take a bodyguard next time you go! Lots of love, Debbie and Holly

Great tour, Artemisia - don't let the boogers get you!!! You are very brave to go so far alone.

Mom's cacti flowers are very pretty.

Thanx for the tour of your garden! mom gets freaked out by cactus as Tarantulas are known to breed in them and even though it's not those kind, she is SO afraid of spiders, she says she'll never have them!

Apparently the world is divided into people who love cilantro/coriander and people who hate it. You are either one or the other. Interesting.

Me personally, I'll stick with the nip!

Mommy thinks the cactus may be a Night Blooming Sirius (spelling?).
She'll do a little asking around.

Thanks for the tour! Our Beans are in the LOVE cilantro group.
