Bouganvillia

It’s in a song from the musical “Mame.”

And I doubt your dewdrop plant is poisonous– I’ve seen plants like that that actually trap insects. Couldn’t help you with species though.

A GIS for “evil bunny rabbit” turned up this picture: http://www.petplanet.co.uk/petplanet/images/breeds/rabbit%20angora.jpg
I think you better put up “Wanted” posters…

Great pics of the yard! Can’t wait to see it in person. Sorry the cute, not evil, little bunnies were eating your plants, but they just can’t help themselves ; )

I now think the rose is an Altissimo rose or similar variety. I guess I didn’t realize there were rose varieties that don’t look like traditional roses. Or at least, what I think roses always look like.

Got one. Can’t seem to google an ID on the other two mystery plants. I’d ask my gardener but he wouldn’t understand me and I wouldn’t understand him.

Steve the pictures are wonderful. I have no idea what a lot of those flowers are but, if you have lisa write Marcia Wood (a nurse at Bloomington) she is an expert on all flowers. She makes them her life. I bet she would have the answers to all of your questions.
You still have a beautiful yard and I am very proud of the work that you guys have done. Keep it up. (Oh yes, I am Lisa’s friend from Blgtn Hospt.)
