I have waited about 4 years for the epiphyllum flower to bloom from a cutting and it has finally bloomed! I am so excited when I saw the flower open a few days ago!!!
I am so fascinated by this flower because they are huge with very vibrant colors. One single flower is usually about 5-7 inches wide. I love the pink and the dark shade of pink together. This cutting was part of a mix so I had no idea what color I would be getting. There are other epiphyllums in this mix but I am still waiting for them to bloom. For now, let’s enjoy this beauty and the bunches of flowers in this post.
HIBISCUSES
ROSES
CALIFORNIA POPPIES
ALSTROEMERIAS
IOCHROMAS
GERBERA DAISIES
That’s all the flowers for today.
The Epipphyllum is spectacular!

Several of your beautiful flowers I don’t have growing in my garden currently. I never have planted alstroemerias but I really want to. They are so lovely, and I used to care for some orange or apricot colored ones on the church property. Those came to the parish in two large pots, donated by a “flower lady,” and were used to decorate the church for a feast day and beyond. When they faded it was my job to transplant them into the church garden, where they never did thrive.

They die back after flowering. So yours never came back? It’s pretty hard to kill them. I wonder if it got too wet or the frost in your area was too much? That’s a shame.

If I remember correctly, the only spot I could find to plant them in didn’t have very good soil.

It shouldn’t be a problem with poor soil. They are really tough drought tolerant plants. My soil are not good either, mostly claylike and I rarely fertilize them. If you really like them, you should grow them again, or try in pots. I don’t think they like frost.

The cream coloured hibiscus is so swirly, I love it! ALL of your flowers are gorgeous, praising one over the others seems unfair.

That’s true, it is unfair to not praise them all. I feel like that sometimes…like I love one child(flower) more than the other.

All the flowers are beautiful, Jam. The first hibiscus is different than one I’ve ever seen before.

Thank you, Mary. That hibiscus is called the orange “El Capitolio”. It is a very different shape from all the other hibiscuses, isn’t it?
