November blooms


I don't know which aster this is other than its huge and only mildly interesting to the deer's gastronomic preferences. The Lion's tail is almost smothered.














This lovely Nerine was a surprise. I'd totally forgotten that Angela had shared her bulbs with me..goodness knows when!

This bud was a fabulouos surprise a couple days ago. This Stapelia was given to me as chunks and pieces from my daughter a few years ago. This is the first time it has bloomed. (at least, I hope it will actually bloom..that some dang squirrel doesn't leap up and break off the bud!) I may be moving it away from the house when the bud does open because I'm pretty sure it isn't one of the nice smelling ones~

Good luck with the Stapelia flower! I have that plant too, but just one chunk. It might even be dead, I can't tell. I tell myself every year to get Nerine, but still haven't done so.

Beautiful photos, as usual, Ms. Weeder.
