More on Lynne's Plants

We stopped by Lynne's house before picking up the rocks.  She has lots of awesome plants -

I really liked this Moringa drouhardii.

Other plants that caught my eye -

New Bunny Ears

New sprouts on the Opuntia microdasys

Opuntia microdasys

I recently picked up a pot of this - it had two growth groups so Marlon and I split it.

UPDATE:  I took these pictures yesterday - I know it is like watching grass grow, but I think it is growing fast...

Around the Garden - April 1, 2017

I'm going to start posting in this format some of the time - just random pictures from the quick walk arounds. Today's focus: flowers! I'll still do the more in depth look at individual plants, but sometimes just throwing them together is good enough.

Shades of Purple

I was walking around the planter benches, looking for mealie bugs to squash and I noticed these plants with a nice shade of purple filling in. One is a Leuchtenbergia principis I bought from the Iwilei Home Depot. It hasn't grown one little bit since I brought it home a couple of months ago. The books say it is a slow grower so I guess this is another plant that will teach me patience. The other one is a Opuntia of some sort - these were hitchhikers on another plant I bought (maybe even the Leuchtenbergia). The sun never really gets too low on the horizon here in Hawaii - so these plants are already getting summer coloring (with the 'spring'-like weather).
