Oooh, pretty Marigold and I LOVE that Senna/Cassia! I have one that a neighbor gave me a cutting of. I transplanted it in early summer to a spot in the backyard that gets more sun. It has gotten pretty big but it doesn't bloom until the fall. It is so beautiful when it is full of those yellow blooms! Mine has much smaller leaves than yours so mine isn't the alata but I don't know which one it is. I will have to remember to take a picture of it when it is blooming and maybe try to get an ID.



I found this pretty Hibiscus in a pot hiding in the corner of the backyard. I didn't even realize this one was still alive, it was covered with sweet potato vines that have run amok in the backyard! Something is eating the sweet potato vines as you can see by the leaves in the background of this pic but whatever it is doesn't seem to be bothering the Hibiscus! The little orange flowers in the background are Crossandra.
