Good morning!
In addition to many blooming Jades, I also have these two....a Crown of Thorns and a bonsai'd Sedum (nuss/adolphii).

My Lipstick buds are coming along!

Hope I don't miss them as I'm going away soon! Was also surprised to find a flower bud on my anubias barteri when I was doing a water change on my fishtank. First time I'll have one of my aquatic plants actually flower.

Wow, Mike, that's a lot of bloom! Wonderful!

That last photo is TERRIBLE! MUST EDIT OUT LATER

Your opening post reminds me of this allium:

Here, I tried to frame it with the flag in the background to look like fireworks:

Sorry to post non Dec blooms. I just took this pic minutes ago. It's of a Santolina chameacyparissus (aka lavender cotton). I should have taken it a couple of weeks ago before the blooms started to go over ..... but then I didn't have this thread as inspiration. I've had it more than 15 years, as you can see by the craggy looking bark.

If I'd planned on taking a pic of the plant, I'd've plucked off some of the dead inner growth to spruce it up.

That santolina tree is beautiful. Amazing how many different plants can grow as bonsai...

Absolutely gorgeous Al and everyone!

I over-winter it indoors every year. It's never had a pest and likes the same conditions as rosemary indoors - a little coolish, bright light, and humidity near or avove 45%. I think most could grow it if using an appropriate (chunky) medium.

Thanks!

Al

Wow, some really gorgeous pictures all!! thanks for sharing...I have a variegated Hibiscus that bloomed for the first time...the leaves are my favorite!!

Hi Nance - nice to see you in these parts. Impressive bloom!

Al
