10 Days of Happiness- Day 8

1. purple sage, 2. gold blossom lantana, 3. confetti lantana, 4. peachy pink bouganvilla, 5. Flower unknown, 6. Mexican bird of paradise, 7. trailing purple lantana, 8. yellow cat’s claw vine, 9. fusia bouganvilla

All of the blooms in my yard are making me extremely happy right now. Most of these flowering plants were here when we moved in, but we planted the lantanas and sage last spring.

See the middle flower there?  It came from a package of mystery seeds.  We threw them outside to see what would happen and these little pinkish, open-faced flowers popped up.  They are very tall, with thin bushy stems.  Any ideas?

Ah, yes! Cosmos! Thanks so much!
