This is about life in my gardens. One is an acre on a hillside in Laguna Beach, California and the other is an acre in San Juan Capistrano, California.

This is Winter
For some reason the hibiscus, which are tropical plants , always seem to be blooming in December regardless of the chilly temperatures. Like a bright beam of sunlight on an overcast day.
Sheila, That beautiful bloom could almost make me forget about the 25 degrees I woke up to this morning! Brrrr! Wishing you and your family a peaceful holiday season, and a joyous New Year.
It’s funny but I’ve also been wondering why Hibiscus bloom in the cold of winter. Do you think that they know that we can all benefit from a splash of bright color on gloomy grey days? Hmmmm!
Happy New Year to you and your loved ones, Sheila.
