In My Garden Today
Posted by Alvin in Motown, z6 on September 24, 2024, 9:41 pm
While out in my yard, I noticed that my earliest flowering Camellia sasanqua, has flower buds that are juust beginning to show color. I expect the first ones to be open in about a week...
This flower is flamboyant, as the Argentinian leader, it was named after. The plant is called a HARDY GLOXINIA, Gloxinia nematanthoides. This plant is a gesneriad, related to African violets, and Streptocarpella. If you know who the female leader is, you can name the cultivar of this plant...
These are two PINK FLOWERING ALMOND, Prunus grandulosa, plants I got. These bloom young, and are early spring flowerers. Maybe, I'll get lucky, and see blooms, next spring...

Alvin, I do like the hardy Gloxina. Sweet Autumn Clematis is wild along along the country roads here and is beautiful this time of year. Is passion vine on a Butterfly Bush?

Thanks, Fred. The Hardy Gloxinia was named for the Argentinian leader, EVITA Peron'. The Maypop is growing on a red Crape Myrtle that is still blooming. Sweet Autumn Clematis isn't naturalized beyond my yard, to my knowledge. Gardens around me have the basic plants, available locally, and could be purchased in bloom. People don't buy anything that is not in flower, at the time of purchase.
