I do not know the name of the plant Tee..it does look like a pyracantha. I just see them a lot on our walkways and this year they are just bursting out of their branches.

That and Bougainvilla were two of my favorite shrubs out there.

Just some more photos taken along our walkways earlier today, berries of different colors and some nice fence climbers adding nature's artsy winter color:

This one is a fence climber:


And berry bearing bushes:






This one attracts lots of birds, and good thing my camera caught a lovely blue bird with it:

Nice color.

Those pictures are beautiful, where do you live?

Thanks Susan and Jo Ann We are in California - Central Valley Area.

Thank You! I was hoping we could identify some of those plants. We have a forum for plant identification here on ATP. The thread "(Lantana)" in Plant ID forum
There is a very nice lady called 'JRsbugs' she helped me before and she is very, very smart.

Oh yeah, Janet has been helpful a lot of times for me too, either to id plants or insects..she is very good! Okay I will post the photos on the plant ID page too, it would be nice to know the names of these colorful plants

Janet is the bomb! She's a walking plant encyclopedia. Amazing.

I follow that forum pretty regularly. Not because I have anything to add, I just like seeing the experts at work. I lurk there.

Yeah, I'm so excited, This is going to be great. Can't wait to find out what this stuff is.

tarev said:I finally had the chance to bring my camera along as I head for my walk yesterday. Our winters are mild, and this year too mild that it feels more like spring than winter. I took photos of these plants with its fully loaded berries, they grow along the walkway bordering the dry creek canal. It does add that very vivid red color that enlivens the doldrums of winter.

Just got the ID from the Plant ID gurus, the ID of this plant is Pyracantha.

Just sharing the ID from the Plant ID gurus:
Photo #1- The fence climber is called: Hardenbergia violacea or commonly Lilac vine
Photo #2- still to be determined
Photo #3- cotoneaster
Photo #4- from the Genus Vaccinium - blueberry bush
Photo #5 & 6 - also a Pyracantha-commonly called firethorn

yummy

That's great information. Don't forget to click on the pictures and 'add to data base' you will get an acorn for each one!

I was able to add the Lilac vine to the database, but I am hesitant to add the others for now, coz looking into the database there seems to be a lot of different variants..I do not know where to put them in.

Is #2 a Spicebush? I was just looking at one on another thread and thought it had strong resemblances.

I took my husband to doctor few days ago and saw something I have never seen before, It was a beautiful gold, variegated, wintergreen, grass-like plant. I looked it up when I got home and found it was called 'Bowles Golden Sedge carex elata 'Aurea', In picture the landscaper is using this plant as an annual for winter color along with Pansies!




If left in the ground these will get two feet high and wide.

It does make a nice combination.I hope they just don't throw them out when the summer comes.

These are shrubs but I am so jacked at this years blooms.
Hamamelis Wisley Supreme

They probably will, I think I will look them up in phone-book and just ask if they could hold on to a few. They are listed as part sun/light shade, but actually need almost full sun to get that gold color. These get sun all day till around 4.00 and that's when the sun goes behind the building.
