    We went and walked around Julie's garden, too. I know that I don't know all of these.
    I just know that this one is yellow and white. It's quit unusual and beautiful.

    I meant to make this one larger but forgot. Maybe later.

    A beautiful Gloriosa Lily. It is quite large.

    This columbine is from Julie's also.

    This is a cigar plant. Glenda told me it was and I believe everything Glenda tells me.

    I wish I had taken more pictures because Julie sure had more flowers. dooley

    Dooley, the first plant is a Pachystachys lutea, known by the common names Golden Shrimp Plant and Lollipop Plant.
    Yep, that is a cigar plant also called a Firecracker Plant - Cuphea ignea

    My Jubabe certainly has some beautiful bloomers too!!! I would like to see the cigar plant up close . . . it certainly is different!

    Jubabe sure has some beautiful plants. I like the Shrimp plant - it sure is unusual and I've never seen one before.

    Lovely pictures...the one is a cigar plant, I had to hunt for it this year at the nurseries. The hummingbirds love it here.
