Sjoerd your opuntia bloom is goegeous. I never had one bloom , lucky to just keep them safe in the garden without becoming a snack for some critter.
Pac and Zigs that plant blooms well into January and February. A fellow gardener up the way gave us a chunk one year when he was making his stand smaller. We were over the moon. Loggie— Breathtaking. So friendly and cheerful.
Gorgeous Poly's @Logan. I have a few Veg starting to get up there. Shallots Broad Beans Parsnips and lettuce Golden Beets (second sewing,) still babies. Lemons Paperwhites Clematis A Gardenia
Lemons … paper white…clementis.. Oh My… This is a beautiful time of year for your garden even veggies . Ooh … I bet your gardenia and paper whites have amazing olfactory perfuming the surrounding air makes it a nice walk about. And the lemons.. Are to die for.. Citrus fruits…never have those here unless it’s those itty bitty miniature orange trees . You have a really amazing garden and know what and when to plant . Timing is everything & I enjoy your garden and how you make the best of each season for your garden zone . Showing some real beauties … from Santa… Annie your clematis looks like Dr Rupel. ?
Zogs .. oops Zigs… How wonderful to have blooms . You must have been really ‘GOOD’ all year for Santa to bring you the gift of bloomin plants this time of year. I have something similar in my garden they are spring /summer bloomers here. The name of your white flowered plant has escaped me ..but they are great ground covers here like periwinkle in my zone. Flowers are blue and burgundy with a few white ones in a warmer part of our season. Always a joy to see your garden is still dishing out blooms. Mine is fast asleep.
