It can be cold--60 degree high today!--but inside or outside we are always surrounded by nature--I love it!
Photos 1,2 and 12 is my Christmas, Hannakuh, Easter, Passover, Leap Year, Thanksgiving Cactus--never know when it will bloom plus never know what colors it will bloom in!
3, 7 and 10 My forever growing Geraniums that I have had for over 10 years
#4 My pepper plant that flowers but don't produce peppers which I started from seeds from a pepper I bought for a salad
#9 One of the many "Cuban" plants that I have that I started with a twig from one that was outside the apartments. I am glad I did because the new owners took away all the Cuban plants we had around the properties. (I call them a Cuban plant but am not sure of their name.)
5 & 6 Penta plants
11 You can see the beach hotel and condos from my east window with the trees and clouds and sky provided by Mother Nature.
8 Even cold weather doesn't keep Squeaky the squirrel from his daily rounds.
And now back to our normal weather starting tomorrow up to the 70s and 80s.

It's terrible here today. I think that there is a bit of freezing rain going on at the moment!

Fabulous plants!!! You live in the right place and have a very green thumb! I couldn't grow a thing on my side of the state. I was just too midwestern to figure out Tampa growing cycles. But here back in Ohio, I"m back in business! Love all your plants! What joy they bring!
