Flowering Agave Update
It is still going up !
We ,ve been weeding and raking over the gravel here , when my my husband noticed ....
... this !
He thought it must be a bulb of some sort ......but no ....its a baby Agave , nothing unusual about that , I have often found "pups " several feet away from the mother plant and dug them up and potted them on.... ...but the really interesting thing about this one , is , that at only two inches tall ........it appears to be flowering too !

Back in my Garden
We,ve painted the summer house ,put up some pretty dolphins , chased away the spiders, moved out our grandsons toy tractor...so now I can sit and relax in there once again.
Thats my daughters little dog ....and do you like my new summer dress ? I bought it in the CHSW Childrens Hospice South West shop in Helston....raising money for those short and precious lives and their families .
I am so pleased with it ! It is nice and cool and loose over my sore tummy .
.......and purple ! : ) I ,ve also got out that old straw hat again . I,m abit of a " Second -hand Rose "
Aaah ! It's good to see a bit more of the sunshine once again .
I,ve been stitching this .....
.....but now I,m stitching this ....and as I sat and stitched , I looked across the garden and noticed something peculiar going on with this Agave potatorum .
....what's going on ?
It's beginning to put up a flower spire !
Mullion Cove to The Lover's Rock
Every day now , we take a walk ....and everyday I,m pushing myself a little further . This is a favourite little walk of ours....from Mullion Cove to the Lover's Rock .
Some days we,ve had quite thick drifting fog .........
. .....but then .....when the sun comes out ....it is breathtaking up here .....
.......and we walk along to the Lover's Rock ..........
........ where one can look across to ancient caves.....
There are beautiful wild flowers here and lichens growing on the branches of the bushes and even on the rock .
