Ahhh ... I love Spanish Flag!!! I, too, have some just sprouting and growing. I bought the last of Onalee's seeds for that vine a month ago! I just love it! :-)

Annette - Your plants are beautiful!!! There is Hibiscus and Ixora available and grown here everywhere. (I know you may boo me ... but I didn't want either in my garden, so I don't have any! LOL!) They are so common in Southern and Central Florida. But they are pretty! I do grow a common Yellow Bells (Tecoma Stans) bush in a large pot. I put it in the pot until I could figure out the best spot for it. Well, it has done so well in the container that I have decided to keep it there. It blooms constantly! Adds some yellow color to my backyard! :-) And I happen to like another common bush ... Plumbago. Something about those pretty blue blooms. I grow a lot of plants for butterflies. You are right ... I guess we are never satisfied no matter where we live and what we are able to grow there. :-)

I grow plants like Brugmansia, Plumeria, and I have taken a fancy to Firespike. And of course Morning Glories ... particularly I. nils! :-) I have a lot of different vines all over my backyard fence. Passiflora, Coral Honeysuckle, Scarlet Runner Bean, Cape Honeysuckle (which I've pruned as a standard), Cross Vine, and Mexican Flame Vine. I have a thing for vines of all kinds, not just MGs. Of course, I grow them for the Hummingbirds!
