My largest bromeliad, an Alcantarea imperialis 'Rubra' from Brazil, started pushing up a bloom spike this year. I've had this plant for ten to 15 years, I'm not such a good record keeper. I first noticed it at the beginning of June. [First two ...

One of the more unusual chores in this climate, should have been done before hurricane season, we're 6 weeks in already - cleaning the coconut trees to remove weight up top and potential flying projectiles. My friend is an expert with a machete so we...

I know I have a number of Eucomis comosa 'Burgundy Sparkler' and some more 'Oakhurst' which look quite a bit alike. So I googled to see how I might tell them apart and found this discussion from a British nursery calld Tropical...

I have been looking for a blue lotus for years to replace one I lost, it looks like I failed again, it appears to be another red one, I should know for sure tomorrow.

There is a flower I enjoy because of the outsized stamens and much smaller petals. The stamens of Caesalpinia gilliesii (Bird of Paradise Shrub) are pretty sculptural. I think it would like hotter temperatures than I can offer bayside here on the ...

A quick check on the garden after the not-quite Tropical Storm, my shade-tunnel was fine, only one knot came loose. It seems only 2 of my 30 or so Dragonfruit flowers set, but there are more buds now! Another crop of cacao nearly ready and ...

More of a lavender or pink than a red, but not a blue, but still pretty. It looks like this lotus will be prolific

Orchid Rock Rose! A couple months ago, @MarkWD responded to a photo of a Rock Rose (a Texas native) with his interest in Orchid Rock Rose. These were beautiful flowers and I particularly liked the Cistus purpureus or the Purple Orchid Rock Rose. The ...

Just went out the other day and took some photos of cottage gardens. I love the interplay of architecture, and hard materials with plants. The first one especially is to kill for, just so far from 'designer' gardens.

Pruning some downed cherry limbs and removing one ornamental crab apple tree after a pretty good squall line went through. I saved a few chunks, ran them through my table saw... and slathered boiled linseed oil on them to cure. Hopefully there will...

Ive mentioned for awhile that I'd like to construct a bathouse for our garden. I found a great small business, "Bat BnB", which specializes in building eco-correct ones. The cost was cheaper than me buying the proper materials at Lowes. Hanging it...

This is the time of year when my little garden is still lush, and the trumpet vine that shades my bedroom window from southern sun is in full bloom. Each morning I step out of bed, pull back the darkening curtains, and see this!

I can't believe this silly Neomarica caerulea AKA Walking Iris is still blooming. I took some photos (first three) of it late yesterday back lit and the color sure is a lot more washed out and on the red end of violet. Of course these don't stay ...

We had stormy weather last night, so I cut the Lillies and some Hosta flowers to enjoy them in the living room. Their scent is perfuming the air. The bouquet with Zinnias and Sunflowers is already a few days old. I used to be very reluctant to cut ...

This may be a bit basic for most people here, but it is rare to hear sound good advice about the basics, (some a little questionable as always ) and if anyone is starting out this could save you a lot of pain.
