Sheri I love the color of your 4oclocks ( the solid ones )is that a fushia color>>?? It would really stand out mixed in with my yellow 4oclocks. If you have seeds from them would you want to trade any seeds of flowers that you've seen I might have??


I posted these blooms taken at night in the Night Picture thread Here they are in the light of day...


Cotton Candy




Unnamed Pink

sure. I'll try and get some seeds for you. Will you send me a PM as a reminder.

Oooooh Oooooh Diane....

your Brugs r sooooo soooo beaaauutiful...! n mine refused to bloom..!!! ..n they r in full sun... but i guess full sun in Malaysia is certainly not d same s full sun in your area!! Should have thot of that b4 huh..!? They r in very very large pots n their roots have grown out of their pots into the ground...so would b very difficult to move....

Oh i envy u your blooms....!!

Well... one cosolation though...my long..long awaited orchid has bloomed... not very fond of orchids coz they r rather shy to bloom for me... i see other people's r always blooming...!



same plant...just a slightly different angle.....

Here it is.....after all the damage and loss to my gardens this year, one lone little seed fell from a bird feeder and grew. it is only about 14 inches high but as pretty as can be.

Alba the orchid is gorgeous!!!!!!! brugs like a lot of feedings and water the more you give the better they will thank you!

Tamara I know you are one proud Mommy of that sunflower!! I would be for sure None of my sunflowers grew enough to bloom


My marigolds are still blooming since early spring They have never stayed blooming this long!


and this is the second round of blooms beginning for Bee's jubilee clematis last time was mid spring



another purple datura , but I also noticed the swedish ivy behind it has bloomed too,

continued from up there^

Charles Grimaldi's are showing out

very pretty. Your bee's jubilee is alot lighter than mine.

Brugs are so pretty, never seen them around here.

That orchid is breathtaking..

IT is lighter than most I've seen Tamara But that is what the package said when I planted last year,, I wonder if the lightness varies with soil or sun or maybe they put the wrong one in the package,??

Soil and light both play a part. Bee's jubilee is for shade.

Well that explains it then Because the package it came it said 'Find an area with full sun " and that's what it gets!!!

Mine says for shade

We better google it up.

Googled it and it says 'part shade is preferred'. Guess we are both wrong Well, not us... the company that boxed them.

Hi Diane n Tamara...

thanx lots... they r also very fragrant...making d area surrounding smells nice...i just wish it would bloom more!!!

n well...i wish i can grow Bee's Jubilee like u...very beautiful...but i simply have to accept Clematis is not for us here in malaysia!!

first camellia

Pretty Sheri !!!!!!!! Does It have a fragrance????

I'll have to sniff it this afternoon and let you know. I don't think so.

These Moon flowers were still open at 11 this morning ,, Very unusual to stay open that long at 1pm they started closing,, I suppose with cooler nights and morning they will stay open longer,, I have been looking for seeds on these since they started blooming in late spring. I have kept an eye on the flower itself after it's spent, then on the vine when it drops off and NOThing,, No pod no browned anything,, I want seeds from these I just can't figure it out,, I have had many many blooms does anyone know where I might find the seeds ???




Butterfly bush bloom


rose in october,,,I had to get on my tippy toes for this pic

Hi Diane...

i have loads of Moonflower seeds... s usual i just ignored d seeds that usually fall off n either germinated n got pulled out or just disappeared ..dammaged i suppose...

if u r interested i can start collecting 'em....

Alba Where do they develope??? I even did research on the net but it only showedme what the seeds look like after harvesting and I already know that I just want to know where ??? I appreciate your offer,, Tho I bought the seeds for it for >.59 cents I just wanted to use my own ,, I can always buy more much cheaper to spend another .59cents then for you to mail some to me ,,Thanks you for offering!!

Diane, my brug doesn't have a scent. Wonder why kind it is.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm Don't know Sherry Can you post another PIcture??

I'll get one tomorrow.

Njoynit would probably know Better than Me tho,, ANd The site I posted in the Brug thread Has many brugs to compare it too also,, I think I may have another site that is easier to manuver around in and List names of brugs with pic in ALphabetical order I'll post it in the brug thread if you interested in view it,,

I posted a picture in the Brug topic. It does smell good.

Hi Diane...

Yep you did I put them in the rock tower and Yep they bloomed Thanks again!

Very pretty flowers, Alba!
Thanks so much for sharing them, when ours are finishing up here.

I simply cannot believe that my honeysuckle is blooming again.
ON THE LAST DAY OF OCTOBER - HERE IN NY!!!
That just simply does NOT happen!

Hope you enjoy it as much as I am...

Wow Lynn, that pic is great! I bet it smells even better!

Boy Lynne that is beautiful. My honeysuckle doesn't look like that!

WOWWWWWWW Lynne That is sooooooo Pretty!!!!!!! All I see here are the Cream colored ones!

I planted a honey suckle bush this year, hope it looks like yours Lynne I think its the same one. Got it from a friend who wasn't too sure what she had.

nmlAlba-dC15 your flowers look so beautiful....thanks for sharing, here in our world the only flowers we see right now are those you share.

Thanks everyone! This one is called goldflame, and I got it because of the colors years ago. My hummers love it too! But they are all gone for this year...

I don't have much left in bloom outside, but did find a few nice surprises indoors today.
I rarely have been able to get an African Violet to rebloom after purchasing it,
so I'm thrilled to see this today.



And this is a baby from that plant - my very first AV baby ever!
I had placed this leaf on the soil in the large jade plant near the mother,
and it actually sprouted a baby! Hope it continues to do well!



And LOOK at this Thanksgiving cactus flower - first time ever that this particular plant is in bloom.
I've had it for a few years, but it never really grew much nor bloomed.
I love how it's almost white with just the slightest tinge of pink to it.

wow Lynne the Thanksgiving cactus looks Lavender to me and I see more buds on it,, The camera must have taken a purple Hue to the flower,, I like what I see!
