Temps are on the rise near the end of dry season in Cape Coral. I have a container garden of desert roses now coming out of winter dormancy and producing a bounty of beautiful flowers. I took the following photos of some of them. A few are named and the others are unknown. Happy spring!

Beautiful selection! Some of them almost look like rhododendron flowers. :D

Lovely Meg! I have just a few and they seem healthy, but rarely bloom. Perhaps because our dry winter is neither very dry nor very cool?

At any rate you are doing everything right and have a stunning collection!

Awesome! I have one in a pot I keep at work. I hope to get it to bloom this year. 

Corpus Christi, TX, near salt water, zone 9b/10a! Except when it isn't and everything gets nuked.
