Great haul there LK. Sleep well, and watch out for your mailman tomorrow!
My Rose of Sharon didn't do well at all this year, Marion. Could be too much sun!! In the meantime, I have added more daylilies to the garden and increase the brugmansia collection. Kel wasn't too thrill with the brugs, cause they are really high maintenance with the feedings and the influx of grasshoppers didn't help at all! He rather I dot the property with gingers, curcumas...anything in the ginger family!!
This year too, I attempted growing tropical vines. Only one bloom from 4 Blue Sky Vines! Sad, but not giving up. Clematis are compensating for their lack of blooms last year. Hurray for the gloriosa. At least one bloom!!
What's left to be planted to complete our vision will be Bon's irises and more Louisiana cypress trees. They are so gorgeous those swamp trees aren't they?
I'm anxious for the camellias to show off this fall. Now they're of the maintenance free group too.
Ok.. posting this pic of Gloriosa Rothschildna..then I'm off to bed.

Phyllis, you must be tired. Have a good day tomorrow..
