  1. Lovely photos. The pink shamrocks were my favorite - here in upstate NY they would only be a houseplant. Happy GBBD.

  2. Gorgeous color on the spirea and ground orchids. Just got my first abutilon today; hope mine ends up as happy as yours always look.

    1. While producing a fair bit of growth, it has produced almost no blooms - so few as to be difficult to say anything re: fragrance.
