Because I have read all those posts referring to ice storms (not only) in the US and I have seen the news, I thought I should post my almond tree, the way it looked yesterday. It has been a dry winter and the tree should be looking a lot fuller at this time of the year...

and my "unknown" plant (don't know its name, helpful comments will be appreciated ) which looked like this in november:

an now it looks this bright orange. A tiny flower reminding us spring is on its way. Missed the better moment of the flower while I was away.
Hi Mar.
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely sunny pics! makes me yearn for Spring as it is grey and cold and damp over here atm.
I'm afraid I don't know the name of your plant but it had a lovely 'hot' little flower.
Michele sent me today but I would have shown up at some time :-)
Hi Mar...! I don't know what that plant is...I just know it is some kind of Succulant---well, at least I think it is...It certainly is lush and I would have loved to see that Beautiful Flower in it's prime...!
ReplyDeleteMar honey, these are beautiful. I'm so glad to see you again. :)
ReplyDelete, I'm coming to your house!
ReplyDeletewow - beautiful shots. no idea what your mystery plant is.
ReplyDeleteHi from Michele's.
Very beautiful! It's so nice to see beautiful outdoor photos without snow. We got about 20 inches of the white stuff the other day...
ReplyDeleteHello from Michele's!
Oh, how i am missing the lush green of spring and summer today. it's bitter cold and theres 2 feet of snow on the ground.....the pics have warmed me up!!
ReplyDeleteMichele sent me you way....have a wonderful sunny warm Friday.
Hey Mar, Thanks for the visit and vote of confidence for new blogger. I really hope that all the bugs get worked out soon...can't believe that they switched from beta w/o getting rid of the bugs.
ReplyDeletei like your winter better. :)
ReplyDeleteOh! I know what that plant is - it's a weed! ha ha, just kidding. I like your almond tree, I had no idea there were almond trees...I guess I never really thought about where almonds came from.
ReplyDeleteI'm lost here concerning the identification of your plant. But ypu can send a question and photo here:

Huh. Well. I was GOING to say that I bet Naomi knows! But I see from reading the comments that she doesn't. So I don't know who else you could ask... but I DO agree it's some sort of succulent! Maybe there is a site on line that shows them ALL... all million and seven of them!
ReplyDeleteIs that almond tree and almond tree - like as in it bears fruit which are NUTS??? THAT kind of almond tree? I want one! You better get out there and water it!!!
I'm jealous of your weather! I wasn't meant to live in cold weather. I hope you can find out what kind of plant that is. i tried looking it up, no luck.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! I really like the second picture, very interesting plant!!
