a few more.. the first is a hanging basket.. a kin to the cuban oreagano..
the second photo might have the new plant _king amazing award..I bought this little cutting on eBay as a pink jasmine... it didn't look like a jasmine leaf.. and the flowers surely don't.. but from this little plant in my container with dozens of other flowers... it's grown all over this trellis and into another .. up 8' across another 5 ft... down maybe 4 ft and across another 8 ft.. that''s an estimate of the length of one shoot.. and there are dozens of them... a big strong grower... it makes the second flower pictured here.. and now there are hunderds of buds for it..this is one year.... I hear it's a zone 8 vine... so I'm left to chop it up and bring what I can inside... it's an Argentine pink trumpet vine... I'll get the real name and a posted picture of it covering a house in Japan with flowers..it's
Podranea ricasoliana..OH>>I can't get the picture of it... but here's a link to it really in flower... likely a zone 8 picture...http://allthingsplants.com/plants/photo/91821/
