Cactus flower (Ferocactus latispinus - Devil’s Tongue Barrel), originally uploaded by malyousif.

It’s the second time this barrel flowers, and since it last flowered, I had moved it into a pot and it seems to be doing okay and likes its new abode.

Have a wonderful weekend my friends.

Strelitzia, originally uploaded by malyousif.

This is the first of four Strelitzias to flower. This plant is 3 years old and this is only the second time that it blooms.

They’re starting to turn yellow… I can’t wait to pluck one out and biting into it!

The Buddha patch, originally uploaded by malyousif.

I can’t remember when it was that I showed you the Buddha patch last, so here it is as of a couple of hours ago. You can see how scorched some of the plants look. It’s summer. The death season for everything green!

Nevertheless, have a wonderful weekend my friends and happy gardening.

Got Banana?, originally uploaded by malyousif.

My banana tree is bearing fruit! Just got back from Morocco to this scene, I am very excited and can’t wait to sample its wares!
