I'm back after misting the orchids and cooking/eating dinner. Tonight's wine is especially tasty.
Thanks all for the nice words.
Here is what we call English dogwood but is also known as sweet mock orange. It grows in the shade and flowers in the spring.
A couple of bromeliads. The first is a sun loving Aechmea blanchetiana and the second is an unnamed bloom.
This is a Dortmund rose. I'm waiting for Janice to post a picture of one.
Allamanda Cherries Jubilee also unhurt by frost is back up to speed.
Rondelettia
Finally, this little tree is known as a lucky nut tree. It has very nice yellow flowers followed by hard nuts. It is related to oleander so all parts are poisonous.
