      Thank you! Yes, and the peace lily actually has 3 blooms on it! First time it's bloomed in years.

      Peace lilies are really beautiful, and quite tough I think, they love their water too. The leaves and flowers are just very pretty, and the name's lovely. No need to cut them up and put them in a vase; they're just perfect displayed whole in a pot, like many plants/flowers I think. :-)

    OMG! They are all so gorgeous! I love your orange colored hibiscus! I really should get more (I only have a few double peach and a few single red)! The echinacea is really pretty...the centers are really cool. I should see if I can grow it in zone 10. That Speedwell is really great...I am wondering how bushy it is.

      Thanks Julie!!
      Not sure how this speedwell will grow, I had one years ago I had to remove, it took over the area it was in. This one is so pretty I hope it isn't as invasive, but if it is, this time I plan on pruning and controlling it better. It is a new addition to my garden this year, as are a couple of the echinacea. :)
