I'm finding my Dyckias are looking especially handsome this time of year with several sporting late summer/early fall colors.
Thought I'd post a few I like... In noticing that resizing photos to what seems optimal for these pages (approx 725 pixels), that a lot of detail is lost. For that reason, there's a second photo of each plant as a cropped "close-up" showing the detail lost in resizing.
