Musings on My Plants

Over time, I have planted all manner of ornamentals, shrubs and trees. Herein is a record of all of the plants that I still believe to be alive. These include basic updates on the general well-being if a given plant as well as photo's and other items.

To view a plant, first choose the Bed and then choose the plant.

This is a great bloom for what is supposedly an easy to propagate plant. I am wondering if this thing is a bit fragile.

This Gloriosa Daisy is supposed to spread nicely, primarily through reseeding. I hope to take some of the seeds and get a few strong plants on my own, creating a large swath of them here.

They are also knowns as Black-eyed Susans, although I do not know their relationship to the Black-eyed Susan that I have from Mum (a yellow one.)
