My Adeniums are blooming in the very hot temps today


My Adeniums are blooming in the very hot temps today (Adenium obesum (Desert Rose))

Today we had temps in most of southern California from 85ºF/29ºC to 90ºF/32ºC. It's still very warm even at mid-night here in San Diego. Photo taken on Dec. 12, 2010.

Great to hear from you! :>)

Have a very Merry Christmas!

I've read most of Australia has had very unusual weather all year just like us in California.

The weather this past Friday has changed drastically. We have a classic "Pineapple Express" (a train of tropical moisture coming from Hawaii) which has set up. Some parts of California have had 20in/508mm of rain by Sunday. This Pineapple Express is suppose to last through Wednesday. Some places may see 2 to 3 years worth of rain, which most likely would be a drought buster.
