Love your hibiscus!! I just got one a few weeks ago at the garden center my stepson is at. It's already bloomed for the year. :sad: But I have tons of Rose of Sharon blooming and another hibiscus just opening.
Love the Salt and Pepper flowers on and under your chair.

The mystery plants are Cattanula variegata, of course. They come in many colors, from black to white. Yours are fine examples of the extreme color variations! (And mighty handsome, I might add )

The hibiscus are lovely--but your roses always blow me away, chico!
