Bloom Day January 2012

Red  Kalanchoe 
Snow on the mountain (euphorbia leucocephala)  making clouds around the garden
 Starburst clerondendron (clerodendron quadriloculare) making its debut this month

Hello and welcome to Garden blogger's Bloom day where gardeners around the globe show what is blooming in their gardens. It has been a cool month so far with frequent sprinkles. Our dry season starts this month and am hoping that it won't be too dry. For more of what is blooming in gardens around the world take a stroll over to Carol on may dreams gardens
Wishing all a happy, healthy and peaceful 2012!

    Wonder shots of the stars and the clouds! Love the red kalanchoe too. Mine are about to bloom and I'm looking forward to that. A pleasure to come and admire your beautiful garden, Helen!

    Well you've got me now. These flowers are absolutely gorgeous. I have a green thumb but growing flowers always elude me, probably because I have to do it inside in frigid Chicago. My best friend is Bajan and will be coming down for the big race in March, now I will really have to look into joining her so I can see this garden in person!

    Wow! I've always heard of 'snow on the mountain' but never seen it before. What a gorgeous plant! Love that clerodendron, too. Nice blooms.

    Lovely post. Your red kalanchoe is beautiful. I have white, bloomging inside. The euphorbia is stunning.

    Hi Helen, i am glad we now posted different flowers. I am sure you still have a lot of blooms which you didn't post. That Euphorbia i don't have yet, does it discard the white leaves or will they become green later? I love your Clerondendron, we have it here in nurseries but i still haven't got one! I hope we will not have a very long dry season this year, are you already starting to have higher temps now?
