for Kristymp (and her Mom) ------------ Rainbow Building group --------- - Duranta erecta in the Verbena family - planted in the Yard Makeover - this is Rascal Catt, Esq .. the Yard Supervisor's plant - he rubs against almost daily - from what I've read, there is a slight fragrance, but guess only felines can smell it ! - love the way the branches grow straight up, then gracefully hang down toward the Earth - look carefully at the branches - the purple flowers are formed on green stalks that look like rain © All rights reserved

Duranta repens (Sweet Memories) .. perhaps because it is purple ! It has no smell like mint or catnip .. but Rascal Catt Esq, Yard Supervisor .. brushes against this each time he goes by .. he has even broken a couple of branches.. maybe it is a Yard Supervisor attracting plant ... according to the Floridata website, this does have a light fragrance .. related to the Verbena family, will need pruning after flowering is complete .. © All rights reserved

- in the evening - unplanned show - the things one sees when you look UP - had been waiting for this Swallowtail to partake of the nectar in the purple flowers - but this is even better © All rights reserved
