Really liking the colors of the zinnias and gomphrena; and the soft leafed yucca is really nice.

Love the light on that soft-leaf photo. I might have to search out that red spider zinnia - that is so pretty. My Mexican Mint Marigolds aren't blooming at all yet. And some smaller ones probably won't bloom. They were hit pretty hard by the drought. Maybe the rain will help and they'll change their minds!Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08681758051433522246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3636445408720805216.post-7510709649937759482011-10-15T08:14:36.288-07:002011-10-15T08:14:36.288-07:00The yucca is beautiful!

The flowering Yucca is just magnificent and certainly is the star of your fabulous sunken garden.<br /><br />The Zinnias look so good, especially that pot of white and orange ones. Salvia leucantha is just wonderful and so is the Salvia farinacea. Both obviously didn't mind the conditions too much.BernieHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04435004798656616711noreply@blogger.com
