The Plant Traveller: 'Aloe 'Sunrise' small hybrid aloe

Image
Have a look. I am quite impressed with the new generation of small hybrid Aloes. And of course I do grow a few.  The video illustrates one particular plant, but I thought I will show you a few more. You should try some as they easy to grow even in pots. I must add that these aloes are easy to grow from seeds, or from little pups.

SEPTEMBER: Aother Journey

In some zones plants are still in full bloom.  In others, leaves are beginning to fall, but yet there are still a lot to see. 

GRAN CANARIA

Have a look at some of the native flora in Gran Canaria, and a video about some of  the same from the island follows.

Suddenly it is September.   At this time of the year, as the weather changes, it is a great time to review the summer successes, and plan for the upcoming winter.  I have had a tremendous time with Aloes this summer, lots of fun propagating new plants, and quite a few interesting flower appearances.  .
