Thanksgiving Greetings

~~~~HAPPY THANKSGIVING~~~~




Sis and I spotted this prickly pear species at the recent community yard sale. It wasn't for sale but we asked for a cutting and paid 50 cents each. I planted it next to my Santa Rita and Teddy Bear cactus. I like the varied greens together.






My daughter's fig tree is loaded once again. She has about three a day that are ripe enough to eat. I have at least one of those a day, sometimes I'm lucky and get two!


~ In bloom ~

Geranium


Hibiscus




MMMMMMMM, my Kale is going into my weekly soup. I pick a few leaves each day! I love gardening, my flowers, and Thanksgiving ! I am thankful for
my shower of many blessings!


Happy Thanksgiving!

Love all your prickly pears! Neat having all the colors together like that!

I fertilized my hibiscus about 1 month ago and they are finally blooming wildly!!! It's great!

I think I need a red geranium! Maybe Friday I will get myself over to get one! They are so beautiful...maybe I can put it in a pot by the front door!

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!!

I like the Prickly pears, of course, that one looks like a "cow tounge" There are some huge ones growing around in a semi-wild state here. I should probably get a pic.

I'm gonna be pissed if this is a Cow's Tongue Opuntia because I also have a pad from the same seller. I already have one good sized stand. This just looked different enough for me to get a pad.
