Is plumbago (I'm guessing yes) a warm weather plant? Love the color! And I THINK your canna is the same I bought from Menard's this year. But of course, mine will be a late summer bloomer compared to yours!. More great pics, Ruby! You have a wonderful garden there!

Thanks brokensword! I have never seen it (plumbago) anywhere but in Florida brokensword so I am thinking it probably is a warm weather plant. I just love it ...never without blooms..This canna is a beast...There are babies coming up all around it... I hope yours is as happy:)

Plumbago is more a shrub, right Ruby? I was thinking MAYBE I could overwinter indoors but I know a lot of plants don't do well without 'real' sun and heat! Still, I love the color and 'all season flowering'!
