Coral Hibiscus – Yes we grow Tropical hibiscus along with our Hardy Hibiscus and Rose of Sharon. I guess I can’ get enough of Hibiscus plants! The best thing about having this type of hibiscus around is that I must bring it indoors in the winter and we occasionally get to enjoy a lovely winter flower.
New York Aster

I certainly enjoy my New York Asters when they bloom each Fall, but it looks like the Bumble Bees do as well! I often see them traveling to the flowers and then going off somewhere with their back legs covered in pollen. Such interesting creatures.
I’m actually extremely allergic to bees, but I don’t have a problem with the bumble bees in my garden. We coexist peacefully and as I said I enjoy watching them collecting pollen from my large variety of flowers within my garden.
Crocosmia Seed Pods
These are the seed pods of the crocosmia plant. I don’t know why I find seeds and seed pods so interesting, but you have to admit that these seeds and seed pods contrast with the green foliage around them nicely.
In July I posted a photo of Crocosmia blossoms.
