Word Full Wednesday: Aloe Flower!

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Napa Consultants DRE00893924

Among the many things we like about succulents are their flowers.  I spotted this gigantic aloe specimen in front of an office building next to a parking lot in Santa Barbara.  

 

These flowers attract bees, insects birds for pollination and to spread their seeds.  We have several specimen succulents on our deck that attract hummingbirds.

 

Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday!

Hi again, Alexandra... now that might just be the biggest aloe plant I've ever seen. Somehow, I always think of them as smaller plants.

Honestly, I wasn't even aware that succulents have flowers.

What a beauty!

I don't think I've ever seen one that size Alexandra. And, yours attracting hummingbirds must be delightful!

I have an aloe plant in my yard.  However, it's not anywhere near the size of the one pictured.  Mine is only about 6" or so!
