The morning Glory tree is only two feet tall right now, but it will get 8 feet tall. It probably won't overwinter here it is tropical. Got it from 'Bayou Blooms', Purple Morning Glory Tree Ipomoea.

Love the Coreopsis Cinda. Thumbs up

Nice photos Susan! I'm thinking about adding some of those lilies next year! Here's a close-up of my Coreopsis 'Route 66'. I love this one. It's very hardy too!

That tall red stuff, is that Lucifer? I have some bulbs in frig, but haven't planted them yet. LOL
Where is your pot Ghetto? all I saw was a beautiful Iris. Love all the daylilies, I just ordered about 25. Hope they are as pretty as yours next year. Green Grin! Your Coneflowers look very happy too!

Thanks. Chris so happy the plants are doing good. Yes everything is green and lush from all the cold weather and rain we had this spring. I'm glad you got some rain. My pot getto is in about 3 different places. I'm working on a project and hope to finish today. Yes, that's lucifer!! Susan plant it in the back, Yikes. I guess they have shorter crocosmia varieties.

Julia, I have ten bulbs in my frig. Have not decided where to plant them. I saw a pic on the perennials forum, I think I will just plant them into a large pot till I see what they are going to do. I will not want something that takes up a ton of space if it only blooms for a week or two. I have a small yard and it must perform or get out. lol Green Grin!

These have been putting on a show for weeks. I don't think they would look to great in a pot. Maybe if you put the pot in the back of your garden. I'm 5'9' and those things are chest high!! Blinking This is the 2nd year for them. They didn't do much the first year if I remember right. They mulitply too! I'm digging mine and planting them in another area. The place were they are planted is the main path to the lake and they lean over the lawn. When my hubby week wack I bet he accidentally on purpurse hits a few!

Wow, those things are big! If they bloom a long time I could probably find a spot for them. But if they are invasive, I might need to rethink, maybe this is why they call them Lucifer! They might need to get whacked once in a while! Rolling on the floor laughing Rolling on the floor laughing No worries here, my husband will mow it down! Blinking
