Neat, Melanie. What are those leaves they're eating? Doesn't look like milkweed to me.
I'm with you on the spring bulbs, while they're a wonderful 'harbinger' of spring after a long winter, they just never seemed to last long enough for me. A flowering plant that blooms once for a week and then just has dying leaves for a couple of months after that really has no place in my garden. I tolerate some lovely amaryllis here because they were planted by the previous owner, but . . Really ? ! Give me cannas, daylilies, gingers any day - they keep on blooming and blooming!
My daylilies are putting up scapes already, too.
Here's my Passiflora quadrangularis, now growing rampantly through my mango tree. The mango has very few fruits this year so far, thanks to the late cold snap we had a few weeks ago, but amazingly the Giant Granadilla has set a fruit! I'd about given up on ever getting fruit from it, but I guess whatever pollinates the mango blossoms did the job for the passi, too! The fruit is supposed to get as big as a football! We shall see.
