Not sure what this is but it looks good.

Bromeliads
Aechmea Blanchetiana

Another Aechmea

My first breadfruit is coming! Has been growing about 3 years. Not sure of the variety, probably a Samoan one.

Total jealousy on my part.

Between the two major types grown in the Caribbean, you've got the better tasting one.

I guess Coreopsis/Tickseed (perennial). If annual, then Cosmos.

It is likely the Ma'afala variety that is tissue cultured here. It's supposed to fruit in a few years and it has. National Tropical Botanical Garden - Tropical Plant Research, Education, and Conservation.

I've been to that botanical garden before on Maui where they have literally dozens of types from all over the world. There is so much they'll let you just take fruit. I tried maybe 4 different ones and I found the differences pretty subtle. I'm kind of scared how big mine will get in 20 years because I don't really have the room for it.

30 years ago someone told me to look at the lobes.

Panapen has deep lobes. Ma'afala

Pana de Pepitas has shallow lobes. Breadnut

When I saw your photo, I thought it had shallow lobes.

You have the whole tree to view, so you're probably correct.

Great Photo and Thanks for clearing that up.

Thanks Olaf,

You might not like reading this, but............

about 15 minutes before taking the photo I saw a large pile of these weeds being discarded.

The previous owner decided to replace them with asparagus fern.

That takes nothing away from the quality of the picture, which harmonizes
superbly with the sunset sky in the background.

Passiflora

After struggling to grow anything in this foreign land AKA Florida, I think I hate you! I try so hard to avoid your picture posts but can't; they draw me in. Beautiful flowers! I'd grow those even if they never fruited and passion fruit tasted like eel.

If I lived in Florida I could grow some of the more tropical ones I can't grow here. Passiflora are easy.

Yeah, well tomatoes grow anywhere--they're weeds. Got any here? Nope. I'll figure it out and make it work but FL is not the land of milk and honey. Trust me on this.
