ππ yes!
Macro photo of very small Euphorbia flowers clustered at the tip of a spiny green stem. The cyathia are red with yellow centers and only a few millimeters wide, surrounded by long sharp spines.
Here they are in all their glory π
Closer view of the same spiny Euphorbia. The segmented green stems fork repeatedly and are lined with white spines. Tiny reddish flower buds can be seen forming near the tips of some stems.
A little closerβ¦
Wide view of a branching green Euphorbia growing in a gravel xeriscape garden. The plant has many upright angular stems covered in sharp white spines. From this distance the tiny flowers are not visible.
This Euphorbia is in full bloom π΅β¨
You just have to look very closely.

Itβs a nice one! I have a very similar one that I noticed this week has buds.
Large clump of an Aloe plant in bloom with many tall spikes of bright orange tubular flowers rising above blue-green spiny leaves in a dry garden bed.
TGIF! Sharing this blooming Aloe to brighten your weekend. πΌπ₯ #BloomScrolling #plantsky
The Washington Post died many years ago. It now serves billionaires, and its priorities are not compatible with ours.

Commander Bone Spurs should have never been elected. The USA is so fucking depressing.
I think so too. The purple curly variety is quite ornamental.
A kale plant with curley purple leaves growing in my garden.
Iβm much more likely to eat vegetables when I grow them myself. Kale is a perfect example. Maybe a kale, sausage, and white bean soup is in my weekend plans. π₯¬π²
Cactus pads of Opuntia violacea with numerous reddish pink fruit.
Last years fruit on this Opuntia cactus are still holding on
Cute. Her hair is Tillandsia xerographica
Specifically in Texas. Iβve always disliked how the GOP seems to own the Christian vote, when a lot of the values I associate with Christianity seem more aligned with Democrats, at least in my opinion.
I like him, and I like JC too, but I think JT will be great at expanding the base.
Remember when Christians used think lying was a bad thing?
βThatβs the way it is,β President Donald Trump said of deaths.

Aloe rubroviolacea with two flower spikes. The spike on left is new and fresh while the spike on the right is old and dried out.
New and old

Are we still part of the the UN? Doesnβt the UN Charter prohibit the use of force except in cases of self-defense or with UN Security Council authorization?
