Debra - Is that a rain lily or an oriental lily? It's beautiful whatever it is! Love all those blooms you shared here! You know I am a fan of monardas! I bet your hummers are flocking to yours! Lucky you! I gave up trying to grow that plant here. Instead, I have a jungle of Scarlet Milkweed! I actually had to hard prune most of them because they were shading my daylily bed too much. Much to the disappointment of the monarch butterflies. Don't worry though, I left plenty still blooming and standing tall. ;-) Sweet little MG you found! ;-)

Thanks Jackie! I just found a new plant (bearded irises) that I love and can actually grow here! Thank goodness I am on a strict garden budget or I might find myself with a few more plant obsessions! LOL! I am swooning over the clematis, too! God sure created some amazing plants.

I had to laugh out loud at my dh. I cut off a bloom of Incense passiflora and brought it in for him to see. He said it looked scary! LOL! He said it looked like an alien plant. He's such a newbie to plants! I loved the bloom! LOL!
