Okay Mom...so I know you don't have anything better to do but sit on the couch and read blogs now that you have a broken arm ;-)...SO....I went around our house and took pictures of all the shrubbery and flowers that looked interesting to me. Of course I don't know the names of any of them, but I would like to, so here is your "What is this plant/flower?" quiz!
(didn't we have a version of these that were orange at the Claremont House?)--I think they are named for a bird right?
(funky yet interesting!)
(I think these are both a plant and a tree? You had the red version of them in the front yard at the birdhouse one summer)
(smells super good)
(how cool looking are these??!!!)
(these are blossoms on a plant hedge going around the back of our house)
