1/ @plants#Houseplants from the #WindowsillGarden for a sort of #FensterFreitag - 2 of the shots (2nd n replies) have the window glass and one a bit of frame, as background (the other on a countertop, beside with window light!)
The little #Haworthia was looking colourful- Haworthiopsis now, I haven't been that active in houseplants in recent years, so still not used to the 'new' names which aren't even that new anymore...lol Views backlit and front lit. #Succulents#IndoorGardening#Alberta
@plants second #plant for #FensterFreitag Ornithogalum pyrenaicum has rarely if at all flowered for me in past, this is its third time this year! A #bulb plant it is sometimes included in Cactus and Succulent collections, it's also and #EdibleHouseplant (in this climate- probably not quite hardy, but I have not tested), but I haven't had enough material to test- prob should have a bigger pot and cushier growing conditions! #Alberta#FlowersOnFriday#BloomScrolling#florespondence

This week saw days of 10-25C, nights 0 to 10C, some rainy days. The coming week is forecast for low 20sC, nights 2-7C- sounds like typical fall weather! Sunny days should be good for farmers with crops to harvest.
This week is #autumn#blues (okay, you know I grew up calling these purple, now I might say lavender or violet!) but we're still in the #pink too! #bloomscrolling#florespondence
@plants@nature This one's an #InsectFriday + #FlowersOnFriday#combo! #bee on Carlina acaulis in the #garden
This is a #composite#flower so those 'petals' aren't, nor are they ray flowers as in many composites (sunflowers, asters, daisies etc)- those white strappy parts are papery bracts, just there to draw #pollinator attention.The actual flowers are all those tiny things in the centre- --cont-
