Thursday in the Garden with Flat Raz


We haven't done a Thursday in the Garden post in ages and thought you might like to see Mom's orchids.  If you're not familiar with The Society of Feline Gardeners, it was started by Jonesie of Cory Cat Blog.

Today we're going to highlight some of the beautiful plants and flowers in Sedona...

First, of course, we start with a photo from Breakfast.  Flat Raz met some pals who were also traveling with their families.   The duck is Trevor and he came all the way from New Zealand.  The bear didn't have a name yet but probably does now!


The Quail family was always at hand to watch us having breakfast...


and the Bird-TV was great...


Pretty pink cactus....

Mom had never seen a pink cactus like this one....it was a pink/purple and beautiful..


Pretty yellow flowers on this one...


Mom and Dad took a drive a bit south so they could take some photos of the amazing Saguaro cactus.  Here's a photo of me with one in the background...


and another one of me with Mom....no she's not scratching her butt....she's trying to hid her camera!


and a whole mountain LOADED with them!


That's it for today.   We're getting near the end of the trip....we hope you are enjoying seeing all the fun things Flat Raz got to do in Sedona!

That was gorgeous!
Our Mommy got excited when she saw the blog title because she thought there would be margaritas in the garden. We kits were excited because it was milk. MOL!
Looks like Flat Raz has had a great trip.

My human loves the desert! She can't wait to go to Phoenix next week! We wish we had the time to visit Sedona too, but not this trip.

the mama always waited that one of her cacti gets flowers and it never happened.... eggscept once as my dad put a fake flower on a cactus and the mama first thought a miracle happened over night hehehehe
it's so great that you and your mom really saw such fabulous cacti with flowers!!!

Katie Isabella said...

Oh and Sedona is on Mom's bucket list. *I* would;t like her gone that long...I'd swoon. But she wants to go.

Those cacti are huge! Wow. Isn't it amazing how something so prickly and stuff can have such beautiful flowers?

Purrs,
Seville
