Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

That's a beautiful one for sure...wish it was a little
more cold hardy :(

Here another nice flowering barrel.


I do have to dig this up before it gets below 20F in fall/early winter.

WOW....that is color is just cool. I seen a hardy one with color like that at Plantasia Cactus Gardens, but when I went back to get seed of it I could not remeber wich one its was. He had just to many of the same sp., but with diferent colored flowers. :lol:

Very nice!
