The Plants of Fire Season: Red.

In mid-February, in Southwest Florida, this is the time of year when the red things are in bloom.  From the top left, we’ve got:  the Croton shrub, the Aloe plant (great for mild burns, and sunburn); 2 plants I’ll have to look up;  the Asparagus Fern,  and the Klanoche.

The Aloe plant has a flowering tip (oh, need another photo) that is reddish-pink on a long spike.  Very fascinating forms.  But note how the tips of the aloe leaves, are tinged with red.  In the Hurricane Season, they are green and fleshy.
