Alastriona, The Cats & Dogs: Flowers on Friday

Flowers on Friday

While cactus are very rude and stick you, they also have pretty flowers. Youngest Boy was into cactus at one time. Mom inherited them when he lost interest, she prefers succulents same benefits (need little water) without the stickers.

Lantana. Something ate this one, but Mom was pleased to see it is coming back out. These pictures were taken in March, they are in the yard now.

Wild violet.

Purple Queen, it isn't doing too good something is eating it.

The Hummingbirds love this.

Butterfly plant. ~ATCAD

Something is eating my patio tomatoes, and it is not horn-worms...maybe locusts, or those pesky Japaese Beetles.; 7/26/2019 1:54 AM
