Octoberfest and garden growing

I added some purple flowers from the end of the street.  Not sure they will survive but it is worth a try.  A lady at work was getting rid of some aloe vera plants so got 5 of those to put in the garden.  The one hibiscus is starting to bloom now so it will survive.  The other one has lots of buds ready to open but none yet.  Just sitting here in the back yard going through a box of kleenex reading my book.  My allergies hate me being outside but you can't sit inside when it is this nice out.  We went to the beach yesterday where my allergies are non existent... should put sand in our back yard instead of a garden I guess.... Thurs night we went with people from work to an Octoberfest.  Didn't get a picture of it but they brought out the big long horn... alphorn ... you see in on the ricola commercials.  He was really good on it.  His lips must have been so sore since no valves or rotars on it... all lips and embouchure...very cool
Lots of flowers blooming now The picture said the one plant
would have many colours but so far they look the same or similar

Lots more buds  will be out soon.. grey on side are my
dieing purple flowers you will see alive lower down

This is the other hibiscus... lots of buds but no flowers yet

Aloe vera plant which should grow large
Another Aloe Vera - I took 5 of them

First one to bloom

San Antonio is in a Drought so we can only hand water.
Based on your address you get one night a week you can
use a sprinkler.  On the other times you can water so long as you
hold the hose so here is Jim not breaking the law
