Restoration continues

This photo illustrates what we are trying to do on our project. The area to the left has been weeded while in the background at the right has not. Clearing like this lets more sunlight reach the forest floor and helps generation of new plants. Of course it needs to be weeded on a regular basis. We have been working on this for 5 years now. Maybe one day we will finish

New Guinea impatiens

We get lots of complements on these New Guinea Impatiens. There are only 28 plants here but they have filled out to form a solid block. This color(orange crush) seems to be more hardy than others. The one problem with them is that they will wilt badly in the afternoon if there is no rain . Other than that they will last for months .
