More Flowers!

My flowers are doing good so far. My rose has now bloomed 3 times since I planted it, the hibiscus is budding new leaves everywhere, all over it's stems, and the 5 or 6 smaller, red hibiscus variety have rooted. The other roses and dahlias I think are rooting but are taking a little longer.

I am excited now because a friend gave me some "Colchon de Nino." They are really pretty purple, pink, red, orange, and white little flowers that grow in FULL sun - perfect for our house! They spread everywhere, like ground cover, so I planted them under the rose and hibiscus bushes, to spread underneath, and also because that area is enclosed and protected from the dogs.

When I told my sister, she actually knew what they were and had planted some herself in the early summer. Here is a picture of hers! They spread a lot and have so many flowers! so pretty!
