  1. Gorgeous flowers. I also love the variegation of the leaves on the Hibiscus plant. It looks amazing to see the poinsettia plant set on a photo with the blue sky. Here we only see these with snow. Greenhouse grown of course. My trumpet vine has finally reached the top of my arbor...I've been trying to get it to climb over the top of the arbor so I can see it from my kitchen window on the second story. It's the first vine that has actually gotten this far and I'm pretty excited about it. Yours are a lovely orange.
