More blooms from my garden

Triangularis Oxalis in the morning

This plant is the first thing I see when I open my front door. Yay!

Greek Oregano that a patient gave me. It was smaller than this when I first got it.

 This is what it looks like now

Some basil that I've started from seed in a re-cycled 18pack. 

I forgot what these seedlings are. Note to self: use plant markers.

My lovely gardenia bush with two buds. Can you spot them?

Gardenia again. However, the flowers have all spent. Just waiting for the two buds to bloom.


More herbs. Above: Mint
Below: Cilantro (from seed!!)




Bougainvillea and Sage plants

Close up of the new buds

Hi Gnomie!

Odd how this flower formation created a "U"

Amaryllis is starting to bloom. Watch out Gnomie!

This beautiful "weed" and its sister are located under the Azelea bush. I let it stay since it's so pretty.


Black and Blue Salvia, Dalhberg Daisies, Amaryllis and Begonias in this picture

 Next to Gnomie are the Portulacas and Moss Roses
 New buds on the Amaryllis
"Pop goes the" Amaryllis!

Read somewhere that using egg shells help stave off slugs/snails and add calcium to plants. Trying out this plant "magic."

It's strange to have succulents growing among annuals, but I love the mix.

Allamanda bush is really taking off

I'm hoping that someone someday will be able to tell me what kind of wildflower this is.

My honeysuckle vine is starting to bloom!!!

And it smells wonderful :)

A lemongrass plant that a patient gave me. It's taken root into the ground even though it's in a container.

My bougies welcome you.

The color palette doesn't mesh, but they're still pretty.
These verbenas are really spreading.
