tarpon springs: Plumbago is Perfect for Florida Gardens and Adds to Curb Appeal - 10/11/12 10:20 PM

Plumbago is Perfect for Florida Gardens and Adds to Curb Appeal
Plumbago is a lovely plant that blooms profusely with cornflower blue flowers.  And, she love, love, loves full sun: partial shade will reduce her flowering. Considered a moderately-drought tolerant plant, Plumbago will survive with less watering
Plumbago can also survive some light frosts and even if cut down to the ground will recover. They will grow very tall if you don’t control them, we had one that was 6ft. high and gorgeous: some folks use them as hedges: imagine a wall of blue and green. They do tend to … (17 comments)

Unique Art & Antiques in Tarpon Springs FL
I love rocking horses; older is better so I look at them in antique stores when I go. I think I took this picture of the Pelican Rocking Horse at Carter’s Antique Asylum or perhaps the Court of Two Sisters in Tarpon Springs.
