Flowers on Friday
This is the front flowerbed, it is a riot of pink Angel Trumpets, red Cuphea (KYOO-fee-uh) and yellow Buttercups.
Doesn't the Angel Trumpet look huge in this picture?
Our Cypress Vine, we are kinda disappointed we hoped it would climb up the bird feeder.
A close up of the Buttercup.
The flowers out front. The plant with yellow flowers is called a Flowering Maple. It is not really a Maple. We like it's other name Chinese Bell Flower.
See the wind-chime. Daddy got it in San Diego at the Zoo for Mommy. It is pink Tulips. It did not hold up to Mississippi wind very well. Some of it got broken.
Ok, our Grandma calls this Queen Ann's Lace but it doesn't look like what other people call Queen Ann's Lace so Mommy doesn't know what this is. It resembles our lavender Yarrow, so we wonders if maybe that is what it is.
A pretty Four O'clock that is awake. We have some more pictures of them we will show you later. ~Scylla
