Suza's Plants

Suza's Plants...

Buddha in his red hat for winter
In the winter he gets a little red hat.
Sedum 'Autumn Joy' in is the bucket, too. summer hat for buddha in the bucket
Buddha in the bucket knows all that's going on...

(he's been watching the gardens change)

salvia 'May Night' and Dutch iris

Acidanthera

Oriental poppy and Centaurea

pyracantha espalier on garage Espaliered pyracantha 'Mojave' starts to wrap the corner. Mockingbirds and Robins love the berries. It will be picked clean by Spring.
Campsis radicans pushes its way through the trellis.
Hummingbirds visit the orange flowers. campsis radicans and trellis

pyracantha in May pyracantha in October
Pyracantha 'Mojave' in May, full of flowers, now covering half of the side of the garage... and here it is in October.

Each year I grow a few new plants just to see how they'll do. I need to "grow it to know it." And a plant that did such and so last year might NOT do such and so this year...keeping a journal helps to remember what was doing what last year at this time! or not!
And, remember that pictures in plant catalogs are brought to you direct from Hollywood. Perfect everything. Your garden's climate, soil, light, and your expertise will affect how the plants grow, and it may not be like the pictures! Just keep growing, reading, taking notes and learning!
