That’s rainwater left from a steady overnight drizzle.

Jade Flowers, Old Saybrook, CT

December 26, 2019

About a month ago, our jade plant began budding, after a good 4-5 months of outdoor living. It’s the second time I’ve seen a jade plant in flower; the first was in a greenhouse, in March (!!!) at High Meadows Farm in Putney, VT. The soft look of the photo is a function of a cold lens coming into a warm house, and fogging up a bit.

Last year there was nary a blossom on our morning glory plant, even though the vines were quite prolific. This year’s planting – in the same spot – was headed in the same direction until a few weeks ago, when the place started rocking morning glory flowers, as well as moon flowers, which I had added as a companion plant. I never noticed the “rays of sun” emanating from the flower’s center – a veritable sunrise – and wonder if that’s how the plant got its name.

They’ll probably be around until the first frost, which seems nowhere in sight, for the time being anyway.
