Lovely pics, Rita. I agree on the Firebush, the birds like the fruits, too! It's a wildlife magnet. Plus, it will bloom in shade as well as sun, although it gets a little leggier.

Carambola are such pretty trees and yummy fruits, trouble is (as with most fruit trees) once the tree starts bearing you get SO many! I think they taste across between apple and orange, and of course they're so pretty in a salad. Make a nice cobbler, too.

1. pretty color combo in a pot at my brother's condo
2. a cutting from Cassie that I thought was Chalice vine - it has a tall shoot but it doesn't look much like a vine. Anybody?
3. enjoying the brugs back to normal. Lots of flowers coming.
