@froggardener Jolana, I saw one of your posts in the multi plant pictures. I asked a question but not sure if you saw it...there is a pix with some big green plant in the middle that looks so familiar to me, but I cant place it. Will you take a look and id that plant for me?? Its in front of and just down from the cannas. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! Big, heart-ish shaped leaves.

I just had to stare at that Ballerina datura for a while. Did you buy that as a plant or grow it from seed? Have never seen one of those before!

Hi Zazinnia, I'm glad @Bubbles was around to answer and she was right, they are fall bloomers and have done real well in all the soils I have had them in

Jay, more beauties, I truly would love to see your gardens one day, Smiling

The Crossandra is blooming now. Foliage looks great, but I think I could have cut it back more than I did when I moved it out for the summer. It got a little leggy last year, but it's situated a bit differently this year.

I have one in a pot. Plan to bring it in for the winter. It is a non stop bloom machine.
