Ardesia, Yes that is duranta.
Rita, That is the nicest coloring in a daylily that I have seen in a long time.
Tropical water lily>
Tropical Plants #40
Dale, is there a particular cultivar that stays low?
It is a pretty day lily, Rita.
My bow tie vine has been a slower starter, but it finally has some blooms.
lisianthus
NOID day lily
Ardesia,
That lily is in a 1gallon pot in a concrete pond. This one too>
Silly me, I meant the duranta.
But, they are both gorgeous lilies. We had construction going on last spring and I allowed the water pots to go dry. Now there is a mystery water lily coming up. I think it is an old Panama Pacific that has decided to resurect itself.
Duranta of all types can be kept low - just hedge it every two weeks.
Dale, when will you be near Dallas, Texas? Sure could use your talents.
Christi
I lived for 13 years in Austin....I think that my ship has sailed past ya'll.
I wouldn't mind moving back to California, the Big Sur area would be a nice place to garden. It's a nice quiet neighborhood.
Rita, thanks so much.
Thanks Dale, I will look for some baby durantas or maybe start some cuttings from my 12" one.
I forgot the name.

Phughes, that is the most beautiful BowTie vine that I have ever seen. I am green with envy.
Sunshinesw, I always enjoy your beautiful pictures from Paradise. Good luck with your mangoes this year.
candela, thanks for sharing blooms from your garden. I love the Palm from Fairchild, did you find a name tag on it?
DaleTheGardener, I have always enjoyed your pictures, but the Copper leaf and Hilo Beauty pot picture is totally awesome. Thanks.
Hi Clemen. I googled Jocote, and found out that is is also known as a Hog Plum, which I am very familiar with. I hope that you get fruit this summer.
