The last two are not actually winter flowers, but happened to be in bloom for these Six.
1. Helleborus orientalis, hellebore does not perform well here. I sometimes comment on how pretty they are in other gardens. Yet, even here, some bloom nicely once in a while.
2. Daphne odora ‘Variegata’, variegated daphne seems to bloom better when distressed. This particular specimen is not as healthy as the others which are blooming a bit slower.
3. Cynoglossum grande, Pacific hound’s tongue is a native wildflower that grows where it wants to. This one is in my driveway. It will not die, but it does not like to be relocated.
4. Tecomaria capensis, Cape honeysuckle is prettier close up than it is at a distance. It is awkward in form, but can not be pruned enough without eliminating some of its bloom.
5. Leonotis leonurus, lion’s ear does not actually bloom at this time of year. This is just a random off bloom. It could be early for next summer, or it could be late for last summer.
6. Callistemon viminalis ‘Little John’ dwarf bottlebrush technically should not bloom at this time of year either, but can bloom whenever the weather has been warm for a while.

Is the leonotis annual or perennial with you. I have got some seed to try again this year, it struggled a little last year but I was late sowing. The honeysuckle is gorgeous!

Leonotis is perennial. We cut it back annually, but it gets huge and layers a few copies that we share with neighbors.

Thank you for sharing the color and hopefulness of your garden. The Lion’s Ear bloom is really special. I feel fortunate that the Hellebores are happy here, but they are patient, too: They must wait to bloom until March. Happy Six!

You are welcome. The bloom is obviously not at its best, but I post it anyway because so many in other regions appreciate it.

That hounds tongue is gorgeous. Never have seen that before. Really nice photo of the Callistemon, too.

That particular hound’s tongue is in the driveway. I do not try to move it because I know it will not survive the move. However, it survives in the driveway. It dies back for summer, so is not really in the way. I just let it do what it wants to.

I could forgive a bit of awkwardness of form to get flowers the colour of Tecomeria. New one on me, presumably too tender for here.

I believe that it would be vulnerable to frost there. I do not know.
