The orchid?  They pop up all over the place but I dont think in this photo, I think the pink is a bromeliad flower.

This sunrise ,  as I gaze through the fronds of our Howea , caught my attention! We are expecting a rain storm tomorrow and we are at the leading edge of the storm , creating a fire in the sky. HarryIMG_1046.thumb.jpeg.0cbf0e2e60a71c72206104b73349e309.jpeg

A praying mantis and it’s the only insect you want to come back as a female! She eats the male after mating, bit of a tough love thing!

This isn't really beautiful or anything but seeing how much I can squeeze in these storage bins is nice. Top water the bananas and let everything else bottom water and soak up the fertilizer runoff.

This is one of two Becarriophoenix alfredii which caught my eye today at the San Diego Zoo.

Newly planted Licuala species at the San Diego Zoo.  There’s 14 new Licuala palms planted in this area.

@Palms1984 I really need to make another trip down to San Diego . I rarely go without visiting and spending a full day at Balboa Park and the zoo. Any update on the recently moved Bizmarkia? Harry
