    Here is the fig tree that has finally given me some fruit!

    This is my Esperanza (the one I didn't kill). It has bloomed four times since September.

    This lantana has not stopped blooming.

    This plant is out of control. My other half calls it my rampant weed plant- I have them everywhere but this one is five feet high.

    Sorry about the quality of the photos. It's pretty dusty out there today.

    It's good to see some of your plants. They really look good and seem to be thriving quite well.
    Fig trees really appeal to me for some reason. Congrats on the fruits.
    The Lantana is also looking quite nice.
    Chapeau!

    Yea, we finally get to see your garden. Loverly plants TBL. How many figs did your tree produce?

    I think that last plant looks like my Mexican Petunia - Ruellia brittoniana. If so, it does multiply quite readily ;) but so far mine hasn't caused a problem since I want it to become a 'plant wall' by our front walk.

    You've got lovely blooms, dust or no dust. Thank you for posting them. I would have loved to have a fig tree. They're so pretty, and useful too.
