Waiting for rain


I am considering hiring someone to do a rain dance for rain. We desperately could do with some rain here at the farm.

There is a Carolina Lupin here that is growing like crazy. It is a yellow lupin that is a native to the US and it is very popular with my customers. It is in full flower now, which shows off the lovely flower. When it is finished flowering, the flurry of interest will be over, which is a shame as it is a lovely plant.

Escobaria


Hello everyone,


I just wanted you to see my Escobaria in flower. Got some seeds 4 or 5 years ago from Gardens North. Didn't last too long, only a few hours, but what a beauty.
