A brief respite from driving rain got me skipping outside to breathe the cold air and inspect the garden. And... surprise! A little Brodaiea coccinea has decided to join us above-ground and one of the Manzanitas is budding up. (Hopefully it will flower as well, but I might have pruned it at the wrong time).
The Dudleya hassei plants that have made the best of it are sending up little rosettes that I suppose will become lovely hummingbird coveted flower stalks.
It's also the perfect time to go to battle against the Oxalis, too as the ground is squishy. And, of course the Malacothamnus fasciculatus is blooming forth, pretending she's basking in spring sunshine.
So enjoy the rain today and all the promises it brings!
