Nice Things in Spring I

I am posting some nice things that are around here this spring.  I hope everyone enjoys them!

First, here are my blooming Geraniums.  They spent their winter in the garage, keeping John company.  They are blooming beautifully!

Next is a small cutting from Katie’s Crassula ‘Morgan’s Beauty’, which is growing really nicely.  Katie says it looks a lot better than hers.

Here is my ‘desert cabbage’ (Kalanchoe thyrsiflora), which I am putting outside every day, to try to get it used to being outdoors.  I am hoping for a little red color as it gets more sun!

This is a Lithops.  I have 3 of them.  This one shed last years leaves in January, and it’s finally ready for water and growing!

Last but not least, John’s little fruitless mulberry trees in the back yard have been accepted by the bird community, it seems.  It’s surprising that the little tree held up this nice, big raven!  The second picture shows the raven in flight.

Hope you all enjoy the first installment of spring stuff!
