Can anyone identify this newest bloom in my flowerpot? It has taken this perch for its own, for some reason, although it doesn’t look like it can be too comfortable. He is usually lying down in it, tennis ball in his jaws. The rest of the act is to drop his tennis ball into the pool from it and then dive in after it, swim to the side and haul himself out, then repeat. And repeat. And repeat. He did this 11 times in one hour the other day when I was in the pool exercising… then another 5 times when I was inside at my computer. He noses the ball closer and closer and lets it roll back a bit each time, then suddenly rolls it enough to tip the balance and it goes into the pool. Then if I don’t retrieve and throw it for him, he jumps in and retrieves it himself. This is what you do when your mom won’t throw more than 30 pitches for you in a row. https://ceenphotography.com/2016/10/07/flower-of-the-day-october-8-2016-dahlia/
Could this be a ‘muse of the day’? Seems to be a hearty variety, will grow anywhere, but will travel everywhere if not kept within garden boarders! Good luck training this wild breed Judy…
