Such a beautiful time of the year in the Garden is February
Plenty of Rain, Plenty of Sun, and Plenty of Humidity.
Makes Plenty of Growth on the plants and Plenty of Flowers.

Nice ones  I was only just looking at the February one the other day and thinking I'd better hurry up 
Do you know the name of that yellow centred pink frangi in the middle pic? It looks very similar to one of mine - hasn't flowered much this year though. Is it only a small flower?

 the frangi, but the rain lily is also very nice as well
My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers;
if they don't they're weeds.

Do the rain lillies multiply quickly. I've not grown them, and do they die down
to reappear next season.

Pitta, the rain lilies, Zephyranthes Candida, do multiply quickly and they don't die down. I used to have some and it took me a long time to get rid of them as they spread so quickly. Be ok in pots though.

Thank you Cheryl you would be shocked if you knew how many of these go in the wheelie bin every year as Gail said they multiply so much, things like that grow like weeds up here..

Depends on what I feed them, they would be sun loving I guess
