It always amazes me how there is always something blooming in the desert during the Winter. I managed to get my camera strap in the picture (LOL).
The chartruese colored Yucca are actually glass scluptures that the garden is hoping to purchase. They need to raise $1 million dollars and are 80% there. I couldn't help wondering what would happen to these pieces of art should a bad hail storm occur.
This is one of 10 masks that an artist created using natural materials. I believe this one was named "Terragon" and reminded me of a horned lizard. Most of the piece consists of beads and braided fibers, but it also contains snakeskin, bone, claws, stone, and fossils.
I was struck by the spiral growth patten of this particular cactus.
I wonder who lives here? 
We came across this huge Mesquite tree that was like an umbrella. The branches reached all the way to the ground around the entire perimeter of the tree. I loved climbing trees when I was a kid. :)
