Yucca still flowering strongly
This is the second set of flower stalks from this Yucca.
Flowers are just starting to form on my largest Yucca.
This wall of Yucca's flowers for at least three months a year.
I think this one is Yucca Gloriosa

And here are the flowers

Here is a close up of the amazing flowers.
Hopefully you can see the pollen laiden bees.

Plant of the Week Columnar Cactus

This amazing columnar cactus is covered in bee attracting flowers for at least a couple months a year. I wonder what bee honey would taste like. The large, dinner plate sized flowers are pink tinged and while being a night flowering cactus the flowers do stay open until after lunch.
This plant was a single six foot, two metre column ten years ago. Now it towers over six metres with many columns. I love this cactus and its two little brothers. Yup I have two 2 metre plants which flowered prolifically this year. They can be purchased for two hundred dollars each with free delivery within in Melbourne and parcelled to any where in Australia for the best rate either of us can find.
I happily keep both cacti as they are the only remnants of my tallest plant which was one of two plants from my whole garden which did not survive the mass transplant. As you can imagine moving plants this size or at least a couple years younger was a huge feat. I’d liked to thank Tony, Andrew, Leon, Tony and of course Janet and anyone else who contributed to my moving garden.
If you know the name of the plant can you please let me know via a comment or you can email from www.doyadigit.com
