Now you got me started, it's going to be hell to get me to stop!

Here is a shot of the flower on the violet trumpet vine. Wierd and exotic, with the purple veins, isn't it? This vine looked like it had died this winter, but it came back with more flowers than it has ever had before. It was covered in hundreds of these things. It almost seemed like it had to be fake.

The others are a yellow daylilly, a purple alstromeria, and an orange alstromeria --- these are really simple plants to grow in this area.

Ok, I think I got it out of my system. I'll stop hogging this thread now...
