Potted Plantapalooza

My african violets spent the winter on a light rack in my study (this is a metal rack with flourescent plant lights--the cacti and succulents in small pots hung out here too). A bunch of them started to bloom, and I moved them into the bedroom to enjoy them. Aren't they beautimous?


This is a proto-bonsai'd Japanese Maple--love the wee dainty leaves:


Here's a sweet quince I have in a pot; I believe it's "Charlotte Falconette" (got it from Evergreen Gardenworks--great resource for pre-bonsai's)


GAH!! I'm goo-goo for Gerbera Daisies! I had a couple that survived in the yard, and more that over-wintered in pots in the greenhouse. This is a new one I bought to fill in a blank spot in a large pot:


The front porch pots have come out to play. See the red flowers? Gerbera Daisy:
