Happy New Year to All!! We are getting massive rain storms here in So Cal - rain is never bad news here as we've been subjected to years of drought and water rationing.
The weather has been so wet here, alternating with warm days, The Irises and hibiscus don't know what to do and have started blooming again.



Santa was very very good to them this year:

Your photos are a great comfort when all I see is gray, brown, and a bit of white when I look outside. Ok, there’s a bit of green, too. Still, the purple, burgundy, and light peach colors cheer me up. Thank you!
Your fur babies look like they are enjoying the indoors!

Love the pics as usual. So good to see something growing. Took this shot today, first few of the 10 amaryllis I have. Getting started. The rest will be awhile yet. In the teens today.
