Spring in the Lo Greco backyard

Spring was absolutely lovely in Tucson!  We had such nice temperatures for pretty late into the season.  I love it when the plants come back to life after a long winter nap! 
Our Octopus agave bloomed..which means the mother plant will die, but, the stalk will put out multiple baby agaves!  This is a Baja Passion Vine.  It always amazes me how these desert plants can produce some of the most beautiful flowers!This is a Pedilanthus (also called Lady Slipper for the shape of the flowers)..Cardiophylla!  Isn't it beautiful?!
