More blooms





Some of the plants I got at the February Swap are giving me blooms. JoanMary gave me the plant with the redish/brown flower. It is Aristolochia fimbriata, a native of Argentina, Paraguay and Brazil. They said it is best used in hanging baskets. It is a delicate plant, the flowers are approx. 1 inch tall.

The blue flower is Butterfly Pea or Blue Pea Vine (Clitoria ternatea). I got it from Chippi. I love the color of the flowers. I think she also gave me a double one but it has not flowered yet. I can't wait to see it.
