Angel Time

A peak around the corner from the parking area reveals the unmistakable star of the garden this past weekend~ Brugmansia, Angel's Trumpet. I'm not sure if this is a named Brug although it could very likely be 'Frosty Pink'. This plant was left in its large plastic pot against the house over winter a couple of years ago and to my surprise it has thrived ever since- having rooted thru the pot. Benign neglect paid off this once.



Hibiscus 'Red Flyer' is going to bless me with another bloom after taking a brief vacation.



We have lovely spent blooms~ these from the Pineapple Lily~



and future blooms such as these from Hibiscus grandiflorus being guarded by a Green Lynx spider.



A shady spot is always welcome.



My all around favorite garden plant~ Salvia. This is a seedling from S. farinacea 'Henry Duelberg' In its many different forms Salvia pulls my sprawled out garden beds together with something in bloom from start to finish of the growing season.

Camera Critters~ A Dog's Day

September 11, 2001 is a day that will remembered forever for a terrible act of terrorism. It was also my sweet little dog's very first birthday. Here he is on his
9th birthday.

Chewy



The Wax Myrtles in the garden are home to Mockingbirds. They watch over everything I do out there,lol.



I took lots of butterfly pics over the holiday weekend. I like this one of a Black Swallowtail for its different angle.



And another couple of bunny pics from this AM:)

"Hiding"
