Blooming! This bat-faced cuphea is in wine barrel #1. It's been in there for three summers now and is doing so well.
Wine Barrel #1 is blooming away.
This Wine Barrel contains Blue-eyed grass, Euphorbia Amygdaliid, Sticky Monkey Flower, Bat-faced Cuphea, and a Delphinium. The Delphinium and Bat-faced Cuphea will bloom later...

My favorite combo in this planter is the Blue-eyed grass and Euphorbia blooms that compliment each other so well...
So wine barrel #1 is doing pretty well, the Bat- Faced Cuphea is still blooming, and the blue-eyed grass is starting to come back, the Euphorbia looks good though the blooms are dead and need to be cleared out, the Sticky monkey flower is done blooming, but looks good, and the Delphinium looks like it's hanging on enough to come back next year.Today I saw something interesting, I haven't seen bees around for a while, but today there was one hanging around the sticky monkey flower, that is not in bloom...I wonder if the sticky pat of the leaves is actually food for the bees when it's off bloom time? I haven't been able to find any info on that, but this little bee was really buzzing all over that plant. - and didn't touch the Bat-Faced Cuphea.
