Canna

Another gift from a friend.
This specimin has not bloomed since I've owned it.
Note to me: Look this problem up. Probably needs more fertilizer?

Unknown Succulent

Sedum?
Both this plant and it's container given by a friend.
All my cacti and succulents are moved inside just before winter, and grown in a bump-out garden window.

Playing with MicroSoft software, and tried using "watercolor." Looks better in the large size. Oh well...
