I’ve never seen an aloe vera flower before, so of course I looked up images on Google and this is it! I put the plant on the floor to get this shot because it’s so tall now.

Interstitial 126: Budding Aloe
Interstitial 125: Spring Weeds
Cute, but invasive weeds; thankfully they are easy to pluck from the earth.
Interstitial 123: Trumpet Lichen
I think these are trumpet lichen (Cladonia Fimbriata). I’ve been trying to get a clear shot of them since I discovered them in early March. Today, I tried out a mini tripod with flexible legs and it certainly helps get a clear shot from an otherwise awkward/impossible position.
Interstitial 122: Manual Moss
It is challenging to get a clear shot of these tiny sporophytes with auto focus, which is what I primarily use. Manual focus worked like magic! I think it’s time to start using it more.
Interstitial 120: Periwinkle
This ground cover in our backyard is popping purple everywhere!
Interstitial 117: Springing Bud
This aloe vera bud grew about six inches in one week! It is literally springing up from the plant. I can’t wait to see the flower’s color. All the leaves now extend past its container, and two new plants have started growing. This plant loves my office desk.
It is also featured in Interstitial 5 and 50.
