Last Spring, we traveled through California, mostly along the coast and saw many flowers I have not seen here at home in the Vancouver area. These particular ones were seen between Carmel and Santa Barbara . . are there California flower experts out there who can identify these? - re the 1st one, I am specifically wondering about the blue-green succulent growing in Carmel - the 2nd was one of the decorative plants in the shopping center, also in Carmel - the 3rd was growing just off the Big Sur Highway in a wild, uncultivated area. And by the way .. I'm slowing down now; I have IDs for most of the plants I was wondering about. Thanks again for your help, folks.
1. Echeveria sp? 2. Grevillea sp. Maybe one called Grevillea Long John. grevillea long john - Google Search 3. ?
I think the first one might be Kalanchoe thyrsiflora. I see a reddish version of this a lot around San Diego. Wikipedia is calling it Kalanchoe tetraphylla now.
