Minus 10

Just ’cause it’s -10F doesn’t mean there’s not plants crying out for attention here.

Can’t wait to fiddle with this image.

Bryophyllum delagoense on my windowsill

If anyone has an ID on this flower, I’d appreciate knowing what this is. It’s from a tall (~12 inches) succulent with linear leaves.

My buddy Miles, hort grad student at Cornell and one of my go-to guys on plant ID, got this one right based on the scan and cellphone shot: It’s Bryophyllum delagoense, native to Madagascar. (Check out Miles recent plant explorations in South Africa.)
