This thread is about plants that I tried this year and won’t try again next year as well as ones that did really well.

East coast North America, zone 8/9, rainfall 120cm.

*Updated with pics

A very dark pink to red Jamaican cherry being held over a very green citrus leaf (red pomelo). Both the berry and citrus leaf are covered in water droplets bc it was raining. Looks like a pic taken from outer space. Bright yellow, petals frame the pic and the circle around a center that is dark maroon. There is a fuzzy staminal column that ends with a dark fuzzy stigma bordered with brilliant yellow anthers. The stigma is so dark red it is almost black. The flower is a Nkruma Tenten okra. A purple curry leaf berry surrounded by native physalis still in yellow, papery, husksοΏΌ, katuk leaves, and huazontle leaves. On a wooden cutting board is an assortment of leaves, peas, seed pods, cucumbers, radish, peppers οΏΌand flowers.
