Name one flower growing now in your yard. I have an orchid in bloom on my tree. It is wired to the tree and does real well.

This tree peony is from last year but it's ready to bloom again any time.

Gardening is my hobby, so I have many perennials that bloom at different times during the spring, summer and fall. Right now I have Gloxinia, lenton rose, narsicus and a weeping red bud in bloom. I bought pansies and begonias which are blooming too

All the roses are going nuts right now; cactus; phaelenopsis orchids in the kitchen window; asiatic lilies; and oleanders. I love my gardens!

Plumeria, orchids, hibiscus, dersert rose, bougainvillea, yellow roses, and some other pretty purple flowering plant I wish I knew the name of that is in our front bed.

We have vines growing over our outside walls from the neighbors yard. They have pretty little purple flowers on them. I just let them grow instead of cutting them down. They are really pretty and keeps us from having to paint the walls.
