1. Phlox from my grandmother's. I seriously can't believe this thing is still going.
2. Acalypha, has survived many 50° nights without damage. Possibly a warm zone there.
3. Verbena bonariensis. Sowed late spring and now it's finishing it's bloom. Hope it returns next year or self sows!
4. OK here's my shameful picture of the canna I bought at Walmart on clearance. I haven't watered it in weeks and it's already probably super rootbound and I'm a huge jerk for leaving it in this state. But despite my terrible treatment of it, it has a BUD! I promise to water it now. Beautiful magenta color against the dark leaves. Oh I would be so mad at myself if I killed it.
5. Coleus (from cutting) from Gita. Wish I knew it's name! It was a sad little cutting when I got it, but it has filled out very nicely and it's one of my favorites (I think I say that about all my coleus!).
