They often reach right over an 8 ft fence and spill over it, YEAR ROUND! I find them enchanting. Also, when you walk along the sidewalk,some mature plants are encased into small holes surrounded by stone or cement, yet they climb way over your head. I always wonder how they get moisture. Yet they bloom profusely. When I get a vehicle in a few months, I plan on stopping to get photos. Another pet project.Stargazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00478962512141694004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287363068376947541.post-90508985026586035422011-04-21T13:24:10.948-05:002011-04-21T13:24:10.948-05:00Straw wrapped in burlap or a tarp after leaf fall ...Straw wrapped in burlap or a tarp after leaf fall can go a long ways in winter protection. Desiccation is often the big problem in winter kill. I'm surprised at the hardiness of the bougainvilla. I always thought it was so tropical. They are pretty.Tesajehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15965295812302989459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287363068376947541.post-18034184521679165172011-04-21T08:31:51.574-05:002011-04-21T08:31:51.574-05:00No hope for the lemon.

I love her big ears, but I'll bet she grows into her feet and ears.Barbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16516591720277269204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4287363068376947541.post-1787564161276931312011-04-20T22:19:16.685-05:002011-04-20T22:19:16.685-05:00The mystery plant with the pink flowers looks like...The mystery plant with the pink flowers looks like a begonia to me. Too bad about the lemon. If there is any green inside the stems when you prune, the plant is still alive. Tasha is so cute!Tesajehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15965295812302989459noreply@blogger.com
