It is Joseph’s Coat! The colors are fascinating as they change through their life cycle.
Yes, I believe it is! It’s so cool to see the variations in color as each flower ages. From yellow/red, to orange, to vibrant pink lemonade, to pale pink.
They seem to do well here in Prescott. Our neighborhood is full of them. We’re up in the mountains where it’s not as hot as it is in the valley.
Wow! The colors are fantastic.
So pretty!
Thank you! It's a beautiful day today. The sun is shining, there's a little breeze, and spring is really starting to hit hard.
Thanks so much! I got lucky.

It rained last night!!! It’s been a while since we saw rain here in Prescott, AZ. The garden is happy. The Blue Balloon flower plants have collected water and it’s fascinating in the morning light.

Wow. It's magical. Tuscany is on my bucket list. For now, I can only imagine how amazing it must be in person. Thanks for sharing.
I love this! Ordinary is extraordinary if only you take notice. Thank you for the reminder. ❤️

This amazing little guy stayed for a while to fill up this morning. It’s so cool to be able to zoom in and see all of those tiny shiny feathers.
