Echeveria subridgida, just recovered finally from last year's bloom, is starting in on another round.

Echinopsis 'Charlemagne'. The flower dwarfs the entire plant.
Sedum clavatum flowers are a little more proportional.
One of the first plants of the garden 17 years ago; I bought a package of assorted "blue" bulbs at a big box store. This is the sole survivor, one bulb that became a clump, still growing, still blooming every year. Brodiaea laxa 'Queen Fabiola' is a California native. I am publicly promising these bulbs I will move them to a sunny spot this fall!
Epiphyllums have fabulous flowers, but out of bloom the plants are not attractive, to put it kindly. I threw some out but kept this one. It deserves better treatment, but at least its not in the landfill.
