Developing Figs
Fig production has been good on my potted Brown Turkey Fig tree. Next month some of the fruit should start ripening.
Purple Oxalis
This pretty Oxalis is similar to the weed one that is green. It is growing in a pot of the Norfolk Island Pine. This color variation has become a weed, too.
Flower Garden Blooms
The front yard Flower Garden is full of blooms right now. The white flowers of the Garlic Chives, are attracting a lot of insects.
Large Asian Pear
Since my Shinseiki Pear only had two fruits this year, they were quite large. An Apple is nearby for comparison.
Meat Eaters
Yellow Jackets have been competing with the cats for their food. There has been a lot more Yellow Jackets this year.
Morning Bliss
Golden Willow Leaves
There are not many Golden Leafed Willow cultivars to get. I have a couple different ones that I am testing so far.
Japanese Angelica Tree
Japanese Angelica Tree is one of my thorniest plants on the Oasis. Thorns are practically everywhere on this plant.
Kristy D European Cranberrybush
Kristy D has been an attractive cultivar of the European Cranberrybush. The leaves show good variegation for this Viburnum.
