Ok People, as promised, here are the pictures of my plants.
Striped Purple Petunia
Petunia Rosie(red and white), Red, Violet Star, Plum burst and Pink brocade Petunia
Pink and Yellow Zinias - note the half-eaten(by rabbits!)pink one in the center - before I took over. And the fresh blooming yellow and pink ones on either side! - AFTER I took over :)
Red Geranium
Angelonia or 'Angel Mist'(Love the name!)
And tada! The best of the lot! Tiger`s Eye Gold Daisy
Mostly kept by the front porch right now(for fear of rabbits and gophers!)
And some, near the unfinished flower beds I`m preparing
So if I`m not seen around in the Blog World as often as I would like to, you now know the reason why! :):)
Disclaimer: I have to admit that the idea of starting a garden goes to my MIL and that she did water the plants for a little while. But they are all my babies. I have been tending to them with the utmost love and care I can. Arent they all lovely?

Beautiful flowers and pictures. Nothing like nature to help one relax, specially during stressful times....I firmly believe that plants DO listen, and respond.

wow..you do have a green thumb.....lovely colors. Gardening is a whole new game here no with so many gardening gadgets and stuff for the soil :)
All of them are so beautiful....loved the 1st one tho;-D.
Almost all my plants dried up by the time I came back from vacation. I even got my maid to come in everyday to water them but the heat was too much[desert heat u knw]. Have to start again...just waiting for the weather to cool down.
These flowers are beautiful! I have the opposite of green thumb except for the curry leaves plant I got as a gift in July(too early to predict its future). So I have to give you a big thumbs up :)
Love the flowers, Mish. They're lovely.
So pretty, Piper! Isn't it fun to work in the garden :D I love it!
