New Plants in the Butterfly Garden by Scylla

We didn't get to see the English Dogwood and the white Wisteria bloom last year, so we were thrilled to see them bloom this spring.

Mommy, Daddy and youngest boy bean have been adding stuff to the Whiskers' Memorial Butterfly Garden.

This is some oregano she added it is doing good.

This is purple Salvia (Salvia splendens). She planted some of it in the bed with the Queen Anne's Lace cause she thought the purple and green made a nice contrast. She has Purple Heart in that bed too. Next year she is going to give the Purple Heart and the purple Salvia a head start cause the Queen Anne's Lace has taken over the bed.


This is Blue Anise Sage. Mommy loves the vibrant blue blooms.



Mommy thought this picture turned out really neat. Although she doesn't know how she did it. You can really see the nice red blooms on our newest hibiscus. It is a Haight Ashbury and it has dazzling red leaves. Youngest boy bean asked for it.

This is a Yellow Shrimp Plant. Hummingbirds like them. The yellow thing isn't the flower it's the bracts. The bracts will support the white flowers it eventually has.

We got even more. Poor Mommy & Daddy are exhausted from planting them. We will show them to everyone ASAP.
