Treva,
Those are awesome! I especially love 1, 2, and the last one in your first post! All we have right now is a hardy white hibiscus that's about 5 feet tall. This is the 3rd year and 2 new plants popped up near the main bush! But I definitely plan on finding some more different kinds next spring. Hibiscus is one of my fave flowers, especially reds, oranges, and yellows! :D You've done a great job with yours!

Thanks Treva! :) PM sent! I included a list of some of the things I have. If there's anything you want just let me know! This is one of my fave flowers. It originally grew only on the southwestern cape of Africa but it can grow even in zone 5 here! It's called Amaryllis belladonna. It puts up a thick bunch of tall leaves in spring, then they die back and in mid-summer it sends up flowers on 18 inch stalks with no leaves:

If you would like some, I can send you some bulbs. The bulbs are white, round, and about the size of golf balls. Here's some more info:

I like swapping plants! :)

They are just beautiful Treva. I love the Rum Rascal and Grand Mariner. Heck I love them all. I couldn't pick one and say it's my favorite. The colors are so different from what I've seen around here. I wonder if they would be perennials in zone 6. I have the red Texas Star and hoping to get some of the white seed this fall. Thank you for sharing such beautiful blooms.
