This is my Ruellia brittoniana or Mexican petunia....
 |
| Though not a great favourite of mine... i do admit Mexican petunia in bloom is pretty..... it does cheer up the garden with its simple pretty face and strong colour...... the blooms only last a day....but there are always more to replace the spent ones.... on top of that it is a very easy care-free plant.... !! |
and this is my Vitex agnus-castus.....
 |
| As my poor wisteria...this poor darling is also perking up....producing new growth now that the temperatures are less hot... but i do not know if it will ever achieve the state of the luckier plants below.....siighhh... God gives me strenth to accept what i cannot change.... well at least i can smell the fragrant leaves....!!! |

Vitex agnus is a medicinal plant. It is used to alleviate symptoms of various
gynecological problems. All evidence is limited to standardised controlled
extracts such as used in Germany, different extracts or herbal mixes may have
significantly different properties and safety issues. Some of the modern uses
include premenstrual syndrome, abnormal uterine bleeding disorders and mastodynia.
