Those are lovely Joanne! I want to go to San Francisco and go photo walking at the botanical gardens! If I am ever out that way, you will know.

Diane, If you are ever out this way we'll go together and do a photo extravaganza.

Great shots. I love cacti. My mom has a garden of them, but with her health it's not looking so good these days. Thanks for sharing. This post reminded me to help my mom with her garden as soon as weather permits.

You make even "unlikable" plants beautiful. Down here in the South, we have these wonderful plants that can survive our unpredictable weather.

Not a big cactus fan, but I love the sound of the word succulent.

These are SO beautiful. I love that they are outside. Here, they would need to be in a conservatory.

Beautiful. Nothing that pretty here. Go to bed early so Peter Rabbit will leave you an Easter present.

They have their own beauty but succelents and cacti are not my favorite plants. I'm more a tropical kind of gal...as in the lush paradise of Barbados or Malaysia. But I don't like sweating in the heat!

Camera Critters - Feeding My Squirrel Buddy

-
Image
Though we are not suppose to feed the squirrels at the gardens, it is always something I enjoy. After all, they do need "good eats" every once in a while. This particular day I brought honey roasted nuts. There were not as many squirrels around as usual, maybe because of the hot weather. So, when I found this little guy in one of the demonstration gardens I decided to let him have the entire bag. He was a bit afraid of me at first but when I piled the nuts in front of him we became instant friends. He even let me take a short video clip of him which you can see below. He was a cutie.
