I actually have never been able toget flowers except a fluke with some sweet alyssums. Hoping to get a cutting or two from my neighboor of her roses gone wild :)

Right now I'm loving these Martha Washington Geraniums I bought a couple months ago. I may not love them when the weather turns really hot, but today they are beautiful.

All of the above if I could. I'd love to have a crape myrtle again -- one that might actually flower -- and gardenias are heavenly. While angel trumpets don't like my part of the world, they are truly beautiful.

Hello,

I like to grow perennials only. Recently I grew the "teddy bear" sunflowers.
The only thing I don't like about them, is they said annual.

It hasn't come in "blooming" yet... Hopefully soon. They are strong plants.
I also have a batch or daffodils. (Flower wise the are my favorite ;))
