These charming blooms belong to the Black-eyed Susan vine, Thunbergia alata. Our friend Carol grows these on her foot porch, and after seeing how glorious they performed there one summer I decided to try one out this year, and it’s already proven a spectacular success. These cheery flowers alone are worth putting in at least one pot somewhere where they can entwine and enchant with their vigorous vining arms.
They rightfully bring focus to our backyard patio, where all the summer action is at, and why there will be the usual lighter posting schedule in these parts. It’s June, and I don’t want to miss a minute of this beautiful time of the year. The month of summer is at hand, brilliantly reflected in the sunny smile of these flowers…
