Speaking of mangos, I have them too but I'm sure they will ripen while I'm away and the critters will enjoy them.
Crinum lilies are all blooming.
It seems like my Crape Myrtles were a little late this year.
I'll miss my kitchen window view of the lake.
The Florida native Necklace Pod Plant (Sophora tomentosa) Is doing well. I planted three or four of them to mix in with some of the palm trees.
The entrance to the rose garden has been taken over by the cherries jubilee allamanda.
This Epi radicans is very happy hanging under an oak tree.
Check out the giant seed cone on this cycad Lepidozamia peroffskyana.
Finally, I'll leave you with a picture of my new gardening buddy. Everytime I go into the garden, he comes running and is right at my heels until I come into the house. I think the neighbors must be feeding him. He used to have a girlfriend but the gators must have gotten her.
