So many brilliant blooms ... love that double Tabernaemontana ... didn't know there was a double. You have so many flowers that are so familiar to me ... and many more I'd love for my garden.
Jim, you've GOT to be kidding me!! This is a HUGE, BEAUTIFUL line up for July bloom day!! And you use all the proper names. Great identifying tool for those broms...I'm bookmarking this post for future reference. VERY IMPRESSIVE!! This is why you're called Grower Jim!!
That is amazing! What a great assortment of beautiful blooms!
Simply magnificent. Thanks for sharing!!
Wow, that seems to be a complete collection! Love all your broms. Wish my plumeria were blooming. They are alive, post-freeze, and have bushed out nicely again, but no sign of buds yet. Did you protect yours this past winter?
Floridagirl: I don't protect much during the winter but I did protect those Plumerias. The ones left to their own defenses froze to the ground and are just starting to come back.
What an amazing collection!! I especially like all the bromeliads... Larry
Holy crap! You are a tropical botanic wonderland!
