Sometimes I try to determine if I have a favorite plant in the garden. Turns out, it’s impossible. I love them all. I have to say, though,  Rhodocoma capensis aka Cape Restio ranks high on the list.

I can’t even select a favorite picture, though in fairness, Cape Restio is photogenic from every angle. See for yourself.

Look at those millions of little flowers.

I can tell you with some authority, the dogs have picked a favorite; It’s the best hiding spot in the garden.

In conclusion: I like all the plants, but that doesn’t mean I won’t move many of them about. This, of course, is not one of the movables. It lives where it lives, and happily so.

How about you, any favorites?

Cheers
