We haven’t visited the terrace for a while. Well, San Geraldo and I do so daily but I haven’t taken you with us for a long time. The Cylindrical African Spear is in all its fragrant glory once again, some cacti are in bloom, and the amaryllis has come back to life with its first flower of the season. As the bud started to open, it reminded me of Audrey 2, the carnivorous plant from Little Shop of Horrors.
Little Shop of Horrors was originally a non-musical 1960 film. An unknown actor, Jack Nicholson, played a nerdy masochistic dental patient.

No hemos visitado la terraza por un tiempo. Bueno, San Geraldo y yo lo hacemos a diario, pero no te hemos llevado con nosotros por mucho tiempo. La lanza africana cilíndrica está en todo su esplendor glorioso una vez más, algunos cactus están en flor, y la amarilis ha vuelto a la vida con su primera flor de la temporada. Cuando el capullo comenzó a abrirse, me recordó a Audrey 2, la planta carnivora de La Pequeña Tienda de los Horrores.
La Pequeña Tienda de Los Horrores fue originalmente una película no musical en 1960. Un actor desconocido, Jack Nicholson, interpretó a un paciente dental empollón masoquista.

Such a pretty place,
David:
It can be uplifting on the most miserable days.
I could spend hours on your terrace!
anne marie:
We hardly spend any time sitting out there, but keep talking about how we need to. At least I’m out there all the time, enjoying the plants and the view. The cats LIVE out there during the day.
Don’t be messin’ with no mean green mother from outer space, if you know what’s good for you! Your terrace is beautiful. It looks so peaceful .
Deedles;
The terrace really can be paradise. We need to find ways to spend more time just lounging out there.
Fabulous !
All your plants look very happy.
cheers, parsnip
Parsnip:
That’s because the unhappy ones are gone! Farmer Jerry is constantly dealing with plant scale and other problems. But it’s worth the trouble.
Cactus flowers are always so beautiful! Beware of Audrey. 2
Debra:
I’ve heard people say the desert is barren and dead. I say they’re just not looking closely.
That would most definitely be my blog reading spot!!!!!!!!! Love the pic!!!!!!!!!!
Mistress Maddie:
We don’t spend enough time doing just that. I always talk about sitting out there with my iPad. Instead, I sit at the computer in my office.
Oh, that terrace is so inviting! I’m so happy to know that you, Jerry, and the furry fellas have it to enjoy.
Judy:
We love it. Dudo and Moose spend more time on it than we do!
Hmmmm, how do your plants stay so healthy? Oh yes, I remember – you make frequent blood sacrifices. Don’t let things get out of hand.
Wilma:
Yes, I am constantly making blood sacrifices… unintentionally. Jerry, however, sits there with Q-Tips cleaning scale off the cacti!
I love your garden with a view! Especially now that it’s protected from the cyclonic winds. 🙂
Walt the Fourth:
We still marvel at the change in our apartment since we installed that glass curtain.
Serves you right for having triffids on the terrance.
Urspo:
Meat-eating triffids.
I’m not saying it’s better necessarily, but the 1960 version of Little Shop of Horrors is much, much darker, and without much in the way of a moral other than to be laugh out loud funny, than the 1980s musical remake.
Fortunately, you’ve survived your own plants, or else you couldn’t have posted this.
Kirk:
I also love the 1960s version and I agree with your assessment. I usually prefer musicals versions, but that Roger Corman camp is priceless.
Laughed at the picture of you and the flower, but you do have some murderous looking cacti there too. Wouldn’t want to stumble around in the dark out there
Cheapchick,
And believe those cacti ARE dangerous. I regularly scrape by!
