Here's my blooming Lantana camara from The Caribbean. It has a fascinating way of changing the colour of its flowers. As a bonus you get a glimpse of my very small collection of insect eating plants. I have two: Sarracenia purpurea (in front) and Dionaea muscipula (in the back). Both from North America. They all three like it hot, but with wet feet. Sometimes a difficult combination.
Beautiful lantana! I love those colors.
I have a variety called “Miss Huff” which is orange with yellow. It’s wonderful the way lantanas have such a long blooming period.
Your pitcher plants make mine look minuscule! You must be giving them exactly what they need...they look SO healthy. :^D
Thanks Watchsearcher for your always nice and positive comments. I always read about the plants and the conditions they need before even considering to buy and plant them in my garden. I follow the instructions to the letter, take a look at them every day and give them what they require. Never artificial fertilizer, always organic. Except for the insect eaters. Fertilizer is poison to them. Besides, they all seem to like my garden.
You and I must follow very similar practices with our gardening even though we garden in different parts of the world.
Isn’t it satisfying, and even fun, to see your plants grow well and reward you with beauty?
I’ll be watching for more plant pictures. :-)
