The big leaved foliage has a great tropical feel and I love the colour of the flowers.

I had to chuckle when I read in your profile that you are creating your dream garden "despite the enthusiastic assistance of Onslow and Miss B". I am working on creating my dream garden in San Diego and California as well. No dog yet, but hopefully soon a rescue Greyhound!<br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8291909857819338108.post-69381136302210186212013-06-16T07:00:57.490+10:002013-06-16T07:00:57.490+10:00I'm not a big Yucca person, but that Purple Ro...I'm not a big Yucca person, but that Purple Royale is outstanding.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8291909857819338108.post-14351583440925599512013-06-15T23:42:45.588+10:002013-06-15T23:42:45.588+10:00Love those Salvias, especially 'Hot Lips'....Love those Salvias, especially 'Hot Lips'.
