good morning monday.
+ happy birthday to jason whose bday was saturday 

hope everyone had a good weekend.  here's a little taste of ours:

ducks at echo park

it was a great weekend to get outside... beautiful weather, hint of fall.  being october already, i wanted to see some fall leaves but as you can see from above, its mostly palm trees.  then yesterday i logged in to see what my sis was doing and was inspired by the beautiful fall foliage back East  and how beautiful her hydrangeas looked in the fall.  so i ventured out to find some colorful leaves--or something-- of my own. something to remind me that it was indeed changing seasons.

i was totally surprised to see that i didn't even have to venture further than my own backyard. i hadn't been back there in a couple of days, and in my absence it had "fallen."

our flowers in bloom.  Q to Kee: are these the same as your lonicera sempervirens?


LA version of fall foliage.  note the palm tree.  this is our backyard.

hi there! thanks for the personal mention & links!
send me a quick photo of the leaves of your plant & i will see if i can identify. the leaves on the honeysuckle (lonicera s. ) are round with the stem coming through the middle of the leaf.
there are others with the orange tubular flowers... which by the by.. hummingbirds love - do you see them there?
yours may be a trumpet creeeper. (campsis radicans) google & check that out or send me a photo...
love ya : )
