Yesterday Seattle had just incredibly gorgeous weather: delightfully warm, sunny, and calm. Did I mention warm and sunny? It has been so very cold and gray this year, so I treasure these rare bursts of heaven. The irises are gearing up.
My garden and part of my neighbor’s. Bluebells and forget-me-nots, plus irises to come.

Just a day or so ago the rain and wind picked up and the leaves began to fall in earnest. The next day they were all gone.

Ooooh, that was one dark sky! Sunny, windy, but not yet rainy. I did no photo adjustment to speak of, either; this image is very faithful to that vista. But just for fun, put “rain coming” in the search bar and see if you like those any.

This year some trees are doing the magical thing. This maple tree has become completely red, in a friend’s backyard the other day.

Not this year, but a few years ago on this date, the leaves were very, very red.

The recent warm weather in Seattle has been beautiful and sunny, true summertime for me.

Irises’ leaves are swords in the garden, and in the right light are a canvas.

Sunbreak is a very Seattle word. Right now it’s pouring out, but an hour ago we saw the sun. For a minute.
Spring beauty in the sun, for a minute or two—wet streets and yellow forsythia.

NOTE: Just updated this post, the tag had said it was tillandsia paleacea but an expert said no, it’s a caerulea. I checked on google images and they are correct! I’ve had this air plant for several years on this north window sill in Seattle. Sometimes some other tillandsia plant stems just seem to appear in the bowl, but I never see them attached. I basically ignore it, soak when I can remember. Over two months ago (!!) a long flower stem emerged. This week a tiny, delicate flower finally showed, and it’s very fragrant! Wow and wow.
Fragrant purple flower about half an inch wide of tillandsia paleacea, with one or two more blooms to come

An exciting thing happened. Someone sent me a gift of 11 air plants! I’ve kept some air plants alive for a few years so I’m pretty sure I know what to do with them, but I’m hoping these don’t need unusual care. What I know to do is soak them for half an hour once a week (upside down so their little butts are in the air), shake off excess water, and keep on a bright windowsill with lots of air circulation. Makes sense, right? Anyone out there know what kinds these are? I’ve included a picture with numbers to help you tell me what’s what if you know. Thanks in advance!
All probably some kind of tillandsias???
Know any names? Please post in comments. Thanks!

I’ve been taking photos out my front window this whole season. Yesterday, just before a big rain started, it looked like this.
