A bounty of flowers in my front garden

This is my biggest one, its a Hybiscus bush with big dinner plate sized flower on it. It the prize of my garden in my front yard. I want to get others with different color flowers also. Im slowly trying to replenish the flowers in my front garden that my hubby accidentaly killed last summer.







This is a closeup of the flowers, beautiful!














These Black eyed susans I dont know the name of the plant, but they glow so nice.






I think these are Gerbera Daisies, not sure, but they are colorful!
This is a suculent plant in front, with a baby Hybiscus behind. The baby was planted I think by birds in another place in my front yard, so I moved it here. The suculent plant gets purplish red in the fall.
Here is one of the two snow ball bushes in the front yard near the house. I have a different type of snowball bush that blooms early in the spring, but its just green now.
This is the new Greek type statue that my hubby bought me last month at the nursery on sale. Because of Caroline having her lighthouse stolen last month, I got a metal cable and tied it to the large porch bench, so nobody will be able to steal mine so easily. She looks so nice on the porch.

Paula , your front yard flowers are gorgeous. Aren't those daisies amazing? They just keep coming back year after year. Your Hibiscus plants are lovely too. My neighbor, Phyllis has a large bloom one in this amazing red color. Thank you for sharing your wonderful color with us.

Beautiful! We don't have flowers in the yard, other than wild violets in the Spring, and some orange day lilys planted by the neighbor which have spread across the property line.

I'm always in awe of folks who bring the pretty to the neighborhood.
