Sandi, love how your picture shows the flower half open, very cool.

Tarev, great clump and what a bright pink color on your blooms.

That is a large bunch of buds on that one Cliff.

Hate to lose it but it has more rosettes left in the tiny colony so think it is OK.

That's so disappointed when they bloom themselves to death. Crying But it is a pretty flower Greg.

'Exorna' has a strange colored bloom. In the picture it looks brown toward the tips, but in the sunlight it's a sparkling gold color. Can't seem to pick up the colors with a camera.


And ciliosum is just starting to put on a show. Should be beautiful in a couple of days! I love it's yellow flowers.

Hurray! Wahoo, a flower show. Beautiful photos Greg and Chris.

My ciliosium is blooming now also. That clump sure puts on a show, but leaves plenty of rosettes to carry on. I to love the pale yellow blooms of this one.
It is so frustrating trying to get the colors we see in the plants and blooms with our cameras. One of these days I will learn how to do it.
I can picture that bloom Chris, with golden tips.

Greg, that is one impressive bloom stalk waiting to open. That will get every ones attention. Lovey dubby
