Here's 'Lucy!'

She's the newest /youngest of our 3 cats! She's still a kitten and likes to play and 'fake' attack the big guys! They put up with her but that's about it! They do not, yet, 'love Lucy!' :)



























Here she is hiding behind an old log at our place!

Mellow Yellow Monday ~ Oct 19, 2009


~~~
It's Mellow Yellow Monday time again!

This is a flowering vine that grows wild in much of the south USA! It's a sweet flower that I have known from my earliest years in Alabama and on through the years.

I was thrilled to learn that it grows well here in the country of north Florida, when we moved here from Miami 22 years ago.

It grows wild along fences and in meadows and open spaces, but I wanted some in my yard.
We transplanted some to our place.

These sweet, fragrant flowers never stop bringing me pleasure! Butterflies and Hummingbirds love them too!

Oh! Also my grand kids, when they were young, loved to pick these little flowers and suck out the sweet nectar. There was no stopping them-though I did try! In the end I figured if it was ok for the birds and butterflies it must be ok for kids to occasionally take a sip from these sweet flowers!

From my world today...


These 2 kinds of flowering vines are troublesome but pretty- and the butterflies and hummingbirds love them ~ so we just let them grow LOL ~ not that they are ever that easy to contain anyway!

I don't know the name of the orange flower...but the bright red one is called 'Cypress Vine.'

My mom always called it "Little Stars" plant. She remembered from her childhood in Alabama that her own mom loved this little plant. The small flowers are star shaped and a bright red and bloom profusely. The foliage, too, is very attractive with a frilly look to it!

The other little flowering vine is equally pretty...well, almost as...! :) They grow and mingle in my gardens, side by side ... almost taking over before the summer's end...but - Oh - they are pretty!



This next one is a type of Jasmine...not positive but I believe it's 'Star Jasmine!'
(I should look it up!)
It grows next to the back of our house and I like the contrast of the white flowers against the red brick!




Enjoy your autumn days!

Love,
Junie
