I think sunflowers make any garden look happy.

I might be showing my age but when i was younger, i had a little novelty singing and dancing sunflowers in a pot. 

 

Are you talking about Bill and Ben? Or am I now the one REALLY showing my age?! Lol.

Hey Ballzac  . Does your cat  like the catnip? My cats were not  really interested hey. (I'm pretty sure I had 'catnip' and not 'catmint')

Yeah cant find the tag. But pretty sure it was the same thing. Neat looking plants. 

[Fenestraria rhopalophylla]

Not sure, I'll see if I still have the tag.

My signature ( the brown corroboree banner under my posts)  was a header before ^ that one, I'm still holding on to old memories, lol.

[Rhizophora mangle - Red mangrove - Guadeloupe]

I gave up in the end hey. I did collect some seed pods from a local estatury, but the growth habit wasn't what I really wanted, ie, the long hanging um, what do you call ems, lol. The mangrove pods I had sprouted and did alright, brackish water conditions suited them, but the lighting wasn't intense enough. Might get back into the mudskippers and crabs when my life is sorted  

[Rhizophora mangle - Red mangrove - Guadeloupe]

I tried to import a few mangrove pods some years ago. I was hoping to grow them in the mudskipper tank, but I got a letter from customs (or who ever) saying the pods had been destroyed and I received a warning. Lol. Cost me like $30 including shipping too, argh! 

 

Looking forward to watching the progress of your mangrove grow Thunderhorse.
