Boomer, Scorpio Water-dragon with ADHD, fibro & hypothyroidism; probably somewhere on autism spectrum, so have lots of interests that constantly change. Most enduring: beading, crochet, gardening; love reading, but right now, my eyes aren't cooperating.

#gardening #cactus #epiphyllum First epi blooms this year. Not sure if this variety is "Wild Orchid" or "(Something) Gypsy"/"Gypsy (Something)"; it lost its tag long ago, and the stem with the name written in marker pen.

I bought a red finger lime tree today, from a local (San Diego) nursery. A cute little bush in a 5-gal pot at the moment. Trying to find out what size permanent pot it needs-- is anybody here, in S Calif, know? According to the tag, it's a semi-dwarf, but rootstock not identified.

Peruvian Daffodils-- on the slope next to driveway. Fragrant. Bulbs increase fairly easily, if they like their spot. #gardening #flowers

#gardening A few things out in the garden: low chill dwarf peach (Red Baron??), still waiting on a few late dragonfruits, watsonias brightening up the yard with cheerful orange flowers (hummingbirds like them!).

#BlueMonday #garden Blue flowers on a rosemary bush in my yard. Legend says, originally rosemary had white flowers until Mary spread Jesus' swaddling cloth on a bush to dry after washing it, as the family fled to Egypt. I did have a "white rosemary"-- which is a paler blue.

#crochet New motif pattern by Julia Tushnicka (JT House), a Ukrainian fashion designer. "Sakura"
I did this one with sports wt yarn/4.5mm hook as a practice piece. The pattern calls for viscose thread, and a 1.75mm hook. I can't work with the nylon (viscose) though, so will use #10 cotton... later.
