This is the Corner Barrell on the SouthWest end of the Patio.. it is surrounded by other pots and containers of
vines, salvias, pentas, cosmos ,brugs, and stuff.
This is the sun on that side at 7:00 am. I use old strips of ric rack for the vines to twine on. They like my great aunts sewing stuff alot. They outta, it is like almost 40 yrars old now, I just decided to use it when I found it in my sewing drawer. This barrell also holds the rangoon creeper, a brug cuttings, and other things I started from seed.

mjponies, nice shot of your tangerine beauty. They are supposed to bloom again in the fall, an overall great vine for shade or sun. (I looked it up)

RachelLF, the plant in your pictures all seem to be very healthy and thriving, I will have to re-pot a few of mine. What is your soil mixture for your potted Aroids?
btw, I am also interested in the Alocasia 'viernam mutant' that tropicbreeze showed, the search is on. lol

Joeswife, what is the plant that the black ee is pointing to? I cannot ID, I really need new glasses.
I am enjoying your jungle, I do have a few four-o' clocks fixing to bloom, from you, but by the time they get around to doing so, I am in for the day. I will have to make it a point to to get a few pictures of them, the grasshoppers seem to be leaving those alone.

pensacolagarden, any ripe tomatoes yet? It is a exciting time of the year, waiting on blooms!!!
