Thursday in the Garden


Our yellow bells, they are growing nicely and blooming up a storm. They even have seed pods.

Whatever this is it is looking nice? A friend told us is was a Rattle Bush or a Sickle Pod but the leaves do not look right to us. This plant has more fern like leaves and is over 5 feet tall.


So we moseyed over to Dave's Garden and asked the nice people in the forums and they came up with ................ Danglepod, Hemp Sesbania (Sesbania herbaceae).

We tried to get a close up so you could see the interesting red and yellow combination.

The Cape Honeysuckle, the Hummingbirds just love it. It rooted itself in the floor of the Hummingbird Cottage so Mommy dug it up and put it in a pot. Maybe next year we will have TWO.
