what's blooming now

Just some quick photos.

Acantholimon hohenackeri has much darker flowers than I expected. This is the first bloom in the four years since planting. It receives almost not water. Cute bracts are left after the flowers fade. Click to embiggen.


Teucrium orientalis is putting on a better show now, than in my previous post. It still shows no sign of fragrance. I'm not impressed.



Eriogonum umbellatum is developing some nice rusty red colors on the flowers as they slowly fade. This is one of the few flowers that I think get even better as as the show ends.
