10 – 10 - 10

Sunny Sunday Morning

So – Today is 10/10/10 and for once the sun is shining! It has been so dull and wet for what seems like weeks – but not today! Sitting having coffee, I noticed the low sunlight shining on the leaves of the plants nearest the backdoor, so I took a few photos (as I do).

There is a mixture of leaves above including: Ricinus Communis, Ensete ventricosum, Melianthus major and Canna ‘Striata’.

The above is a wider shot of the same and includes various succulents. The leaves of Colocasia fontanescii can be seen as can the flowers of Salvia ‘Cerro Potosi’.

The above shows Salvia ‘Cerro Potosi’ growing up a trellis accompanied by Aeonium ‘Schwartzkopf' and Black-Eyed Susan (Thunbergia alata). Growing amongst all this lot is the Golden Hop but that looks rather sad now at this time of year. Again, the large leaves of Colocasia fontanescii can be seen.

Anyway – Looks like being a good day as long as the east wind is not too chilly.
