Shades of Green . .

- midst the pink Seminole Hibiscus
- Azaleas of fuschia
- Bleeding Hearts (leaning across from D's yard)
- a few petals of the Pinwheel Jasmine
- Kalanchoe, green and also with a touch of color
- hanging like unlit lanterns
- brown cones
- long slender ones are male of the Coontie Plant
- member of the Cycad family
- dinosauers/ancient one native to Florida
- top left corner & bottom right .. think those are female cones
- if so, they will have orange seeds in them
- a toxic plant, it has been used by the Seminole Tribe for food
- a long involved process to get starch from the root .. making flour
- this plant is the only one I know of that the rare Atala Butterfly feeds on
- so, one should plant quite a few
- the larvae can strip the leaves quickly
