Oh, that is a pretty Lantana. I love, love, love all the variety of color. That should be on the front of Better Homes & Gardens, or Southern Living. Too beautiful.

Oh, I was wondering if it was several plants together. Thank you for posting that beautiful pic anyway. I love Lanatana and it is like a weed here in FL. The birds drop the seed everywhere and it was coming up in our yard, so I just transplanted a couple of plants last year.

One of the plants is quite big now and it's the pink w/yellow centers. The other one is very tiny and has not bloomed yet. It almost died on me during the drought.

Do you use the rabbit fur to make things? I've seen folks do that.

We lost our rabbit furbabies 5 and 4 years ago. We didn't use their fur to make things.

I love having the pic of them as my avatar and it's the same pic we use for our desktop computer screen, even though they passed years ago. They are always in our hearts and minds (my husband and I). Smiling

I don't have pet rabbits, but the adjacent property to us has a rabbit warren behind her house and it extends over to our yard. I've spotted so many rabbits in the early morning when I'm out there gardening. I have found 3 rabbit holes on my property.

I love talking to them and they don't seem to be frightened. They don't seem to eat my plants either. Bonus! I've even had lettuce and they didn't munch.

There is all kinds of wildlife in our community. So far I've spotted: Armadillo, Possum, Rabbits, Snakes, Birds of all kinds, Coyotes, Deer, and Wild Turkeys. There have also been Bears all around the community. They get into the trash cans when folks put them out to the curb the night before, so they have stopped putting them out until the morning of trash pick-up.

Good to talk to you Marilyn in cyber space.
