Mammillarias are starting to bloom 💚💚💚

VIOLA - Arkwright Ruby Grown from seed this winter, these cute little red blooms are thriving! Im enjoying them while they last, once the heat hits, their season will be over.

Five years ago today 🌿 Cochemiea dioica, our Peninsular Fishhook Cactus, blooming in Anza-Borrego #nativeplants

Hardy Orchids – Bletilla striata These resilient orchids can survive down to zone 5, dying back to the ground each winter. Just spotted this year’s shoots breaking through the soil surface!

On this day in 1918, the last Carolina Parakeet died in captivity. A beautiful bird lost to history, a reminder of our impact on the planet. #Extinction #Parrots #Conservation #NeverForget www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/t...

Potato harvest day! I think everyone should try growing a little of their own food. It’s a great way to connect with nature and appreciate where food really comes from. #GrowYourOwn #HarvestTime #VegetableGardening

Aloe arborescens x ferox ‘Tangerine’ bringing the fire this winter 🔥🔥🔥

It’s been a while since I’ve done a walkthrough of my landscaping! m.youtube.com/watch?v=15XJ...

I’ve had this orchid for about 10 years, but its ID is long lost. She’s very pretty but my bf says it smells like a flower that didn’t take a shower 🤣 #MysteryOrchid

Orchid Glitch For some reason, this Paph’s pouch also tried to be petals. #orchid #Paphiopedilum
