I have a typical Florida yard. Many different grasses and wildflowers. Here are a few that bring color to my yard, and attract bees and butterflies. The first is a lonely little Primrose. The second and third are Lantana and the forth is a Morning Glory.

You have a pretty yard, Jan. The flowers are so pretty, especially the lantana. I love lantana and have a lot of it around the yard and plan on planting more. It attracts butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds, and deer don't eat it. Very nice and colorful set!

Very nice, Jan, and finally have obtained severed different lantanas that can survive our winters, as I can see a few tiny little leaves emerging!

Thank you Merry. I didn't have to plant mine. It grows naturally.

Thank you. Mine bloom most of the year. Some of the hybrids are less hardy.

One of the advantages of living in the sub-tropics is color year-round. I don't have any opportunities to take snowscapes, but I can live with that.
