I'm entirely jealous of your success with passionflowers. Your photos of the Datura have convinced me that I need that plant, even though its poisonous qualities have always put me off - if I can accept poison in the air I suppose there's no reason not to plant something poisonous in the ground.Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-15579593240748683872020-09-15T12:56:22.009-07:002020-09-15T12:56:22.009-07:00Beautiful!

Grevillea x gaudichaudii and the accompanying plants make for a very nice vignette of 4 different colors and shapes, and even the leaf debris adds charm. It may be the last time you can photograph the blooms of Passiflora 'Amethyst Jewel' climbing on the ceanothus, as its days may be numbered. Let's home next blooms day is in fresh air and cool air.chavlinesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10907844942343152129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-25834267210091973732020-09-15T09:58:23.378-07:002020-09-15T09:58:23.378-07:00Gorgeous bougainvillea!

Fires, evacuation, water restrictions, air quality... I just figure what dies dies and I start over. My daughter lives in SW downtown Portland. Amazing to read Portland's air is the world's worst!
