Cool, we get to see Jules! Nice camera strap!
Didn't snag me a cutting of that fuchsia, did you? Ha, ha! It is not one I have in my collection. Yet!
The purple flower in post 7103452 is an Osteospermum. One of the many daisy type flowers called African Daisies, but from totally different families. Up here, they also call it the "Freeway Daisy," because you usually find one of three plants along the freeway, this flower in purple or white, iceplant in lots of colors, and Oliander in lots of colors, boring!!!! There are some cool new Osteospermum hybrids that even have each petal rolled and flared in a way you just have to see. Hard to describe. But it is cool because the underside of each petal on these flowers is always a shade of purple even if the top is white or almost white. These are a hardy perennial that grows quickly from cuttings SW!
And I see that DP identified the white Cosmos.
Here are three shots from my garden.
First up, California Blueberries. Not a variety, just grown here ;-)
This is my baby!! A big 10 year old bush. I love blueberries.
