Just a few pics from around the house as it's getting crazy out there. But a good crazy.
Two things, 1- Look who's on my Cardoon !!

2- The plant with the dark maroon foliage is ???? I'm guessing it's a type of Coleus. It somehow poppped up in my moms garden a long time ago and spread like wild fire by re-seeding itself. When I moved down to NC, one of the potted plants I brought had some in it and boom, it's off and running. It's a REALLY dark purple plant that turns towards maroon, then has a small hint of green. Small flower spikes with a light purple petals that produce tiny black seeds. Pretty neat plant. Easily controled by pulling.
