African daisies~Outdoor Wednesday 031111











I know that some of you are dealing with snow right now, but here in the desert, flowers are blooming. These are some African daisies that I planted in my front yard, out by the street. I planted them last December, from the seeds that I got from last year's crop. They get full sunlight all day, but I notice that they don't open up until about 11:00 a.m.! Hmmmm.....They close just as soon as the sun starts to go down over the nearby mountain in the afternoon. Aren't they colorful? Enjoy! Outdoor Wednesday for March 1, 2011.

    Good for you being able to see nature letting the flowers come out. We will get them before too long.

    They are just beautiful. I love Shasta daisies but the color on these is gorgeous.
