Beautiful pictures. I have a question about the Brugmansia. I really admire the plants and would like to try one, was looking at some at the Mt. Dora plant show last weekend. They were pretty expensive and the woman selling them told me I could put it in the ground and it would freeze but come back. She was from S. FL and I'm not sure about it coming back in Central FL. There was one on the bike trail where I walk and for years that I admired, the last two winters it froze to the ground and it did come back, but not this past summer.
I see it says zone 10a-11. I'm wondering if anyone in Central FL has these in the ground...or should I keep one in a large pot and drag it in on the freezing nights?

By the way mjsponies that is a very pretty color morning glory, I've never seen before.

My garden is looking so wonderful right now with the temperatures we've been having...I'm finding it hard to come inside and do housework. ;-)

Mexican sunflower blooming now...
