Some Gifted Plants

 

 


 Happy Monday my friends!  The meme above is so true and I feel that  those of you who visit here are truly friends.

It's slightly cooler today with a pleasant breeze coming through open windows.  There is also less smoke in the air. I haven't watched any news yet ; I'm hoping the wildfires are getting controlled. 

Last Friday #2Son came home with a number of plants in the back of his truck. One of the tenants at the complex that he manages was moving out of the province and was looking for a home for the plants that she had on her deck. She wondered if he knew anyone who would be interested. And that is how they came to me. 


Cuphea being a tender perennial will have to spend the winter on the porch.



This one is a mystery. Any ideas? I'll include another picture of it.




He thinks she said this one (below) is a hibiscus, I remember having one years ago but it was a house plant.
 Can this one survive outside? Maybe I should keep it on the porch.   Nice of that person to leave the ceramic bluebird on a stake. She couldn't have known that the bluebird is one of my favourite birds.

So it goes. My day continues with some laundry and maybe some baking.  I made a Pear cake on the weekend but there's not much left. 


 Thanks for coming by!
