Last year just before my move, I transplanted it to a larger pot and brought it to Tucson with me. It actually put out 3 new pups (bulblets) and went dormant for the winter.
10 days ago I noticed a bloom stalk amongst the leaves and then a second one. I couldn't believe that it was going to bloom for the first time in 6 years. I brought it in the house and am enjoying it. Now if I could just figure out what I did to make it flower again.
There are other things in bud in my postage stamp yard and around me, however I love the Saguaro blossoms and the Palo Verde trees the most.
The Saguaros put out a crown of blooms all the way at the top. You can see them on my cactus, just barely.
The Palo Verde trees out do themselves with small yellow flowers. I'm glad this one is across the street and I can see it, but don't have to clean up underneath it.
I'm still settling into my Tucson quarters, trying to rearrange things to fit. Some time in the next couple of months I'm going to have to do a large bead room clean out. If I don't, then I'll have to buy a couple more Plano storage boxes - which means having another wall cabinet made and an addition put on my studio! I just downsized and am not ready to add onto the house & studio at this point.
some things that need a new home. |
If you want or need something, drop me a line and I'll see if I have it and want to get rid of it.
