Finally...

[Faebinder]

I don't even remember the name if this flower but I think it's lizards tail. After 8 months it finally flowered!!

It even survived transfer to a bucket while the pond was down for 4 days during renovation this summer.

Nice, never seen it before! What about that Canna, do you know what kind it is?

 

[Meyer Jordan]

Hibiscus!

 

[sissy]

yep hibiscus .I have lots of them here

It sure is a Hibiscus, most likely a Winter Hibiscus.

 

[Faebinder]

NICE!!! hope it survives this winter.

The other plants in the picture are the cardinals and obedient plants and I don't know the name of that red leafy plant but boy is it one of the strongest growing plants I got. As strong growing as an iris.

 

[Meyer Jordan]

The dark red leaf plant is a Canna variety.

The dark red leaf plant is a Canna variety.

Thanks. I'm gonna head to the garden place I bought it from to get some more pea gravel and ill look up the name.

 

[Faebinder]

I don't think my Hibiscus is coming back. The stem is still erect and dormant with no leaves. Ironically I bent it by mistake a week ago and It went back to being erect.

My obedient plants are coming back and one of cardinalis is coming back.

Does Canna do well in water?

Patience.

All do well with 'wet feet', but only certain varieties will handle complete immersion.

Thanks Meyer, I was told my "Island" plants won't survive with wet feet so I am looking to replant.

What are your 'Island' plants?

 

[tbendl]

Some kind of night blooming somethingorother (that's the Latin name) and then a big bowl of whatchamacallits (that's the Pig Latin name).
I just looked for "moist soil" and "full sun".
It's shocking how full of knowledge and help I am sometimes......
