Parodia horstii has started to bloom. I love how bright these flowers are. The photos don’t come close to capturing how vivid this pink is.

On the street in San Francisco yesterday. A1 Sauce says it’s a red current. #CaliforniaGarden

🌱 Cutting back the dried yarrow flowers at the office when I discovered this. Sorry, and very excited to have mantis in our patio! Tucked it back in a safe area for hatching. #urbangardening #californiagarden

Took a walk with the pup and came across these torches blooming. Anyone know what variety of Kniphofia this is? 🌱 #californiagarden #garden #gardeningfeed #gardening

Spotted this Isopogon formosus at Flora Grubb Gardens in Marina del Rey. Total zone envy—this beauty wouldn’t stand a chance in NJ, but it thrives in California’s mild, dry climate.

Last of the hot peppers trying to hang in until the new year… 🌱
Same, peppers, same.

Nothing lifts my mood more than realizing the California poppies are in bloom! I encountered these on my walk today. #longbeach #californiagarden #gardening

Because it's been a long day and we all have so much on our minds, here's a little bit of joy from my backyard: My #sheilasperfumerose is about to bloom! #californiagarden

Snapdragon DoubleShot (seed) Appleblossom Hem Genetics is so beautiful, the double-petaled snapdragon flowers make for a beautiful, impressive stem. There is a little Nemesia Escential Zazzleberry (Plant Haven). #flowerpower #snapdragon #californiagarden #containergardening #pinkflowers

SO HUGE gardening win!!! I have these wine barrel planters from Home Depot, but every year, the critters dig up my flowers before they can bloom. This year, I figured out what to do! I bought clear umbrellas to cover them at night and create a little greenhouse! #californiagarden #flowers

Going to transform this area come Spring —> adding rows of raised beds and reducing the number of grow bags
