~Wire Plant~


I found this wonderful plant at Costco the other week. They were selling it by the flat and it's called Muehlenbeckia axillaris "Nana" Wire Plant and is a ground cover. I put some of it in a couple pots and just fell in love with how it looks. I was able to get out in my yard yesterday, but the rain is already back so I won't be able to finish today. Hope you enjoy this wonderful new garden find as much as I do. xoxo K.

  14. My Costco was selling the most beautiful rose bushes a few weeks ago - I bought two white climbing roses. I can't wait until they wind themselves up a trellis to the roof!

  15. Hey Kathleen, I think that's like my angelvine plant that i love so much and have in my "fairy garden" scape. It may be a relative, either way, I love them. the only problem with mine is once it dries out it's a goner. dead. no bringing it back. Your variety is probably heartier. love that flower frog. Ready to link up for WW!
    hugs,

  17. Hi Kathleen! Thank you for stopping by my blog with those wonderful comments! It seems that everyone in blogland seems to be planting right now. I wish I could.....but, alas, the rain is back (again)! I like your plant...is it a trailing type of plant? Do you think it could be topiaried?
