Yes sugarweed you've come closest.. right on ... on all counts..
it is the new ..well new to me and I love it... a poinsetta with the crinkeley brackets..
a real neat variety.. complements of Lowes..
the pink one is a Latina Rose Flame Cyclamen .. from the Smith and Hawken retail
store here. they do have some nice things..
and yes.. a double brugmansia in bloom .. for the Christmas / New Year season... such a gift... I didn't think I needed to identify that one here.. although unusual perhaps.. at 40* North in January.. and the inner trumpet descended better inside than it did during the blooming last summer .. waht were the reasons given for the innertrumpet not to descend fully.. I rememb..er hearing it spoken of .. but at the time it wasn't an issue for me.. and I don't think I followed it too closely...
See anyplace that waters so much... well it is spread out.. here's another view of one of the areas... a little eearlier in moving things down..as there are more things in bloom.. showing I guess 1/4 of what's down here growing... there are two plumeria in bloom today though... such a joy... Gordon
