Flowers and plants in Theresa's neighborhood

Here are some plants I saw on our walk. I noticed that there are a lot of ornamentals from South Africa in all the yards.


Gazania - native to South Africa


I don't know what this grass is, but it sure is attractive in the late afternoon sun.


Lantana - a noxious weed in Australia.


Hibiscus - a noxious weed in my yard back home in Ohio.


Foxtail grass.


Haven't a clue, but the young foliage is bright red. (update on 3/24/06 - this is Photinia in the rose family)


Sweetgum in flower (aka "spiny eggs" in my yard back home).
