The barrel cactus is budding out- soon those amazing red flowers will be here. I see these in all stages of bloom around town and in the desert area near where I work. Mine must be late bloomers.
The "Natchez" Crepe Myrtle I planted last summer is hanging on in the heat and even puts out a few little flowers now and then.
And the night blooming cactus is getting ready to bloom again. Here are 3 of the 6 buds...looks like tonight will be the night.
In the backyard the grape vine is growing nicely- not sure if it will give me grapes anytime soon but it sure puts out the green.
The tangerines are gaining a little size.
And the little Pomegranate tree only had 3 fruit. One of them showed up in my bedroom this morning, fairly well eaten, a gift from Miss Moo dog, which is what prompted this wander to begin with. So now there are two- are they not the cutest?
Hope you enjoyed this early morning wander as much as I did. Happy Bloomin' Tuesday! To see what is blooming in gardens around the world please visit Ms "Green Thumb" Jeans.

Very nice....don't ya just love having fruit growing in your yard?
I've never seen these fruits on the tree, or so green. I'm sure I'll remember these photos and smile next time I'm at the A&P!
Tangerines are so delicious; wish I had some growing in my yard! I've picked citrus-type fruits from a tree only two times in my life -- one time in Florida and one time in Australia. Nothing like fresh-picked fruit!
Very nice walk, thanks! What fun to have fruit growing. My son gave me a grape plant last year. No grapes this year, maybe next. Jean
well, you've got a lot of stuff happening there... try, if you can, to get a pic of the night blooming cactus. And while you're out, see if you can catch any of the meteor shower that's happening tonight and tomorrow night...
Those barrel cactus flowers look interesting, and I'd love to see the night blooming ones.
The meteor shower is coming from near our constellation - Camelopardalis, the Giraffe!
I enjoyed your morning walk. How beautiful. I think I love cacti - I want some when I grow up!
Hi Dee, love all your blooms. Those tangerines are going to be pretty good when they turn ripe!
