December Blooms

Fuchsia 'Marinka'

It's Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day, and I was happy to see a few plants in the sunroom are cooperating. While I have some dried flowers, too, these are the "live" plants currently blooming. First is the Fuchsia (F. hybrida 'Marinka'), which is budding, blooming, and fruiting.

Gerbera jamesonii

Next, the Gerbera Daisy (G. jamesonii): It seems early for this friend to be starting to bloom, but it certainly brightens these December days.

Oxalis vulcanicola 'Zinfandel'

Finally, the yellow Oxalis (O. vulcanicola 'Zinfandel'), which blooms year-round...outdoors from May through early October, and indoors through the other months. Its foliage is as striking as its flowers. A few other indoor plants are beginning to bud, but I'll include them next month.

Thanks to Carol at May Dreams Gardens for hosting Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!

  1. Beth, your sunroom flowers are lovely, I was wondering if the Gerberas are easy to grow? I've never tried them.
