Blooming Rock Garden 2011/2

This is an itty bitty transplant from the nearby desert that I was just sure wasn't going to make it. It's try #2 (RIP #1). But I had trod upon this little guy last year by accident and couldn't just leave it to die of shock.

This morning I noticed it had a bud on it! I was so excited I took a picture. Imagine my heart flipping in my chest this evening when I found it had bloomed while I was gone today. I very nearly hurt myself trying to find the camera before the sun set.

Eep!
