happy plants, happy gardener

The pots begin to overflow. order and health are returning. The duranta is as high as my head and spreading out nicely gently shading the heracleifolia. Selph's Mahogany is beginning to fill it's bowl, a miracle after my rather complete cleaning of it's rhizomes (see 'Selph Stew' pic). Even the bougainvillea on the east wall has begun a new flush of new growth and magenta bracts. There are 6 blood oranges on the tree- five of which are on one branch, i'm going to have to figure out some way to prop it up. The passion fruit are starting to have a slight blush on the bottom, hopefully on their way to edible ripeness.
