For Zephyr!
« on: June 02, 2006, 12:46:55 am »
Drum roll please!

That's right, the Zephyr cholla is not only growing, but looks like it wants to bloom!

I knew naming this delightful New Mexico native (and an endangered one at that) after such an incredible lady would be good omen! 8)

Just thought I would pass that along.

HUGS,

Mark

Hi Mark

I know this was meant just for Zephy..but whenever I see her name I know it has to be something worth reading.

The "Zephyr Cholla" sounds very exotic..is there any chance of seeing a photo?..I love beautiful plants..especially when they are named after our own beautiful lady, who is definately blooming.

Hugs
Jan

The Zephyr Cholla -- I like that name! 

I miss all those wonderful desert plants (they indeed are beautiful Jan).  When I was in AZ last week, my auntie's ocotillo was blooming beautifully.

Will second that request for a pic, por favor!

Take care,
John

I'll see what I can do about the photo. It's just so cute! The blooms of this particular variety are supposed to be crimson. Since I'm quite fond of red, I can't wait.

HUGS,

Mark
