What is the first picture Steve? Quite intriguing. Looks like a mixture of a orchid, bog plant, lilly, and passiflora. Very nice.

Cheers,

Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someone's neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing?

I love toad lilies! 

What's the last plant with the beautiful blue flowers?

:( My toad lilies aren't blooming yet.

I used to love using Monkshood in arrangements, it lasts well and is a gorgeous color mixed with oranges and yellows. I should plant some.

Nice Hosta too, really a good bloomer.
