Blooms

So, most people think of Phoenix and think there aren't any seasons and everything is brown. Well, here are a few pictures from around our yard that show there's no truth to that!
Our saguaro will be blooming soon. This thing is at least 25 feet tall!
Our prickly pear has lots of buds.
Flowers and thorns. Thankfully Braden knows better than to smell these flowers.
Along our backyard fence to the neighbors. A nice view from the kitchen window.
This ocotillo is much more mature than the one we planted at our old house that was only 3 feet tall!
Well, this is the result of flowers that require work on my part! I think we'll stick to the one's that "came with" the house!
