Red Charlot* autocorrect messes it up. Btw, typing on phone a lot now with my rough, dirty digits. Expect lots of horrible typos. Forgive me.

I could look at those all day John, do you have a full garden shot of all them in bloom? That would be cool, seeing them all together.

They are all beautiful, but the red ones are my favorite. The smaller flowers, look so delicate. And all this in February?? I was pretty excited that I have one bougie blooming inside, but that seems pretty pathetic now. If that was my garden, I would just sit outside all day and enjoy the scenery.

Hi John, wonderful show, love your azaleas. I really like the whole tree photos. Really nice. You can see the years of care in them. Nice natural designs.
@Clicio
That is the best Calliandra I've seen in a fair number of years. The whole tree in bloom at once, uniformly flowered is exceptional. (though over the last 30 years I have only seen a handful). The light & airy feel of the flowers is striking. Thank you for sharing. Stunningly good flowering.

It's amazing; even the caliandras at the public places and parks here blomned at once, between Friday and Saturday. Something about the weather I guess!
Here goes a picture of it hours before full bloom. Stunning isn't it?EB87F882-E4DE-4FA3-B942-BDAA30B15F89.jpeg
