My potted plants spend the warm months outdoors, but now they are all back in the house snuggled up close together until Spring. The Thanksgiving Cactus is blooming!
I am amazed that even though our nighttime temperatures are below freezing, the 'Iceberg' Rose continues to bloom on the south side of the house.
To add color to the Winter landscape, we have a Redcedar which is actually a Juniper, not a Cedar. It is an evergreen tree with cones that look like berries. Birds eat the 'berries' and find shelter in the dense foliage.
Happy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!
