Cookie, thats a Blue Butterfly Clerodendron. I keep mine in a pot and bring it in for winter, but while its outside its in dappled shade. Although I have a feeling more sun would do it some good. Plantfiles says part sun to shade:

Marcy, I've been wanting Patty's Plum too. I don't have any Oriental poppies yet- gotta fix that! I'm too cheap to buy them, and have had no luck with seed. Its been a few years since I've tried and I'm a lot better with seed these days, so oughta give it another go. Unfortunately, I think Patty's Plum needs to be purchased as plants. Or maybe I'm just thinking they don't come true from collected seed- something like that, LOL.

msrobin, nice artwork! I especially love the furniture pieces!
