This multicolor pastel rose is in a flowerpot just outside my front door. I have been watching it mature from a promising bud to this specimen rose with many petals.
Pink gladiolus flower stalk drooping after winter rain.
In Tucson, pansy and nasturtium are only possible in late autumn, all winter if protected against freezes, and early spring through April and possibly May.
I'm located in the rain (green on the map) at the little blue, edged with white, dot in Tucson's valley at the lower left. Summerhaven at the top center is in the snow (light blue on the map) on Mount Lemmon.
