Taking care of the crocosmias
Blooming onion. Not the deep fried version!

On the way back from Zion we stopped at Horshoe Bend on the Colorado River, just south of Page, Arizona.
'Coral Bells' (Heuchera) ... in a flower pot -- cute, look like Christmas tree decorations - morning walk discovery yesterday.

An unusually decorated restaurant in the Marais district of Paris. Didn't go there but went to another not far called "L'Arsenal" a traditional bistro where I had a lovely "pavé de boeuf" with a kind of puree of mashed potatoes and Aligot cheese.
You never know what you'll find on a lazy afternoon out at the lake.

.. Thanks for that. There was a small flower sign in the pot, which I took to be related to this plant. Nope ... just looked up fuchsia ... and that's definitely it!! Will have to quit reading signs posted in flower pots!!
My initial reaction as well. Will show an extra angle or two, then let you know.

The university I went to had a huge garden area curated and maintained by their horticulture program. A local accused the department of having the wrong label on a plant there. It was a fairly epic argument over a few weeks. You guessed it, the Horticulture program was wearing 'fertilizer' after being proven wrong in their label. It got heated, to make it even more embarrassing. How it got so far was just asinine...
This was the same 'university' that oked and distributed an entire run of course catalogs with one word misspelled. It was 'Univeristy'... The shame, the embarrassment, the rushed effort to pick up the catalogs in the dead of night after the error was finally discovered. Oops... I hear it's a collectors item and sold on ebay for a while.

The reason I ask is because I ran into a Japanese beetle that looked like it was covered by beige shag carpeting. It was dead, but clinging to a leaf. I mentioned it on an insect blog and people said I was nuts. I sure wish I had a picture of that oddity, and could figure out how to cause it in mass to eradicate those damn things around here.
But my point is, looking at it, one would have a hard time telling that it was a Japanese beetle. It looked so odd. I mean like the carpeted car that used to ply the streets around the uni I went to. It was hard to tell what it was, but it was odd for sure. I think the carpet held so much water, the metal underneath likely rusted at record rates, not to mention the weight of that water too. Yikes...
I love Le Marais, you can't really go wrong in any of the bars or bistros around there.
