Beautiful, Marilyn. Coleus add so much color the garden.

Any day you wake up on the sunny side of the grass is a good day.

Marilyn I love the coleus' they made for a beautiful, eye-catching banner for today.

If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.

Thank you @rocklady, @crawgarden, @carolem, @EscondidoCal, @GaNinFl and @cliftoncat for your nice words.

Thank you @bootandall, @CarolineScott, @GaNinFl, @lovemyhouse, @plantmanager, @pod, @rocklady, @TBGDN and @vic for the thumbsup.

Thank you @Bonehead and @cliftoncat for the acorns.

I took the photo on October 24, 2011. I like the colors on this one. The orangish red flowers in the upper left is Firecracker bush (Bouvardia ternifolia). I had them together, along with Salvia 'Black and Blue' in a 20 inch container on our sunny patio that year. The second and third photos show Firecracker bush (Bouvardia ternifolia). The fourth photo shows it with the Salvia. All four photos were taken on October 24, 2011.

Happy y'all like my banner.
