My brother has passion flowers in his garden in LA. Just beautiful. My garden is still looking pretty shabby, but most of the plants are starting to perk up.

I love the blue star creeper ... what an incredibly good variety of plants you hae in your garden. The passion flower is gorgeous. Sigh ... wish I could grow one outdoors. I seem to kill off the ones I get each summer and try to over-winter!

Very pretty blooms, I love ground covers in a garden!

My dad had a passion flower growing here for a time. I've tried a few times but no luck. Yours is beautiful:)

Sorry I'm late, Chigiy...you have quite a lovely list here and like Carol, I admire those groundcovers. I've only read about the Laurentia, not seen it. And a gazillion Columbine would be a wonderful sight.
