Of the plants I see above I have the 1st cuphea and winter them over in the garage. They are only now starting to grow and I'm repotting the 5 large I have.
Also got the blue spires that grow so tall, a safety feature re: cats.
Below are a couple of perennial shrubs I planted for hummingbirds. This is a young Anna's feeding on them, the first of the year. The juveniles take a while to become shy.
