It’s pretty tiny on my little phone screen, so I can’t be sure, but it looks like the iceplant that people plant on their steep slopes so they won’t erode - delosperma cooperi It blooms in such a vibrant fushia that it’s neon pink. I used to have this all over my front yard. 

Thank you! They are just lovely!

I agree. Who knew that desert could be so beautiful. You must have green thumbs DDruid.

Atacama, Chile. One of the driest places on the planet in bloom

Very nice, great idea to change the header , weekly

Namaqualand, S. Africa. Usually sand, in bloom

I believe this is where that iceplant originally came from. I know it came from Africa. Thanks for the picture!

Really?  Every Monday?  What a treat for us!  No pressure, though, only do it if you have the time and the will!

My pleasure.

Let me know what is happening in your neck of the woods on any given week.

I have something for Valentines, but we have a couple of weeks before that.

Wait a minute... it's Australia Day!!

D'OH!!

Love the new "Australian day" header!

Here in the USA, Feb. 2 is Groundhog Day. In the US the "official" groundhog is Punxsutawney Phil located in Punxsutawney, PA. If the groundhog sees his shadow then supposedly that means another 6 weeks of winters. The thing is if those guys would just leave that groundhog alone he wouldn't come out and see his shadow. But, oh no they have go poking him to get him to come out of his home/hole.
