Hope the aggregate of what I've said doesn't give the impression that Jatropha nuts are edible. Probably not, I have no idea. And castor bean is...
The flowers may be really boring on a tree, so could probably be easily overlooked. I never notice "flowers" on oak or pecan trees but they are...
Wonder where the nuts came from without flowers? Did your friend take a pic of the nuts?
There are white ones along the road too, I just like the pink better. Heckuva pretty weed but very prolific. At 10 mph (it's a gravel/dirt...
Jatropha?
Anyone who plants a Bradford/Callery pear after a whiff of those blooms must have no or much different sense of smell. Same with privet. The...
People also like Vinca, boxwood, privet, burning bush, ivy, Bradford pears, Mimosa trees, Japanese honeysuckle, and lots of other weeds.
I think z8 is the edge of hardiness for these things, Cycad or palm, so understandable it might be struggling. Also occurred to me to wonder if...

No doubt! ...and I think she is brilliant!
Koszta, hope you stay above water!! I remember muddy clay well from when I lived in OH. Had to have shoes only for that because they were...

I was starting to think that, thanks for the reinforcement! I'll try to stop thinking it's thirsty. I'm sure you've had drought at least as bad...
Yeah, I've been trying to understand this plant since moving here from OH. All of my garden space except 1 tiny spot was grass when I moved here,...
I wonder what the conditions are that make it grow so crazy. I have 4 little patches in my yard, different exposures, that never get much bigger....
Absolutely! I think I can start calling them senior moments at this point but usually I just blame my bifocals. Smiles!!
Hey, came back for another look (and closer read - you've figured it out, never mind!) because this bowl'o'flowers is so pretty!
Tradescantia pallida, a US native. If they give you a piece, it should take root easily.
No doubt, awesomely pretty! Knowing where you are could help figure out what they are, as well as pics of the plants.
Each new leaf that comes from the top, or more specifically, from the petiole junction of the previous leaf, should be slightly taller than the...
