I couldn't get the first link to load, but it looks like a toadlet in the
album.

What lovely pictures! Is that a hibiscus???? I guess here in Phila. I won't
see one that big....and the hummer baby is so cute. Thankyou for sharing!

Cheryl & Maureen, The red flower is a Swamp Mallow or Hardy Hibiscus
"Lord Baltimore"
http://plantsdatabase.com/go/40923/
Maureen, I'm in NJ and it does very well here. Cut it to the
ground after first frost and mulch. What you see in photo is one
seasons growth in Aug. or Sept. Blooms all summer.
D.S., I thought they were toads .... I'm going to have a bunch of
them. Hank

It resembles the hundreds of toadpoles in my pond right now. I had two
American Toads copulate in my pond and then leave their fry to grow on their
own. However, we started out with what looked like thousands of them and
now looks like only a couple hundred. Don't know if the fish ate them, or
they died off??

Cheryl, If you follow the link for Plants Database there are many UK
members. I'm sure one of them will be able to help. I would think that
as long as you have a four or five month growing season that the
abundance of airborne moisture (my attempt at being nice to our
friends across the BIG pond) the swamp mallow would do very well.
After all the Lord and Lady Baltimore (red & white) are named after
royalty. ;-}

Lisa, I think they are toads also. At least that is what "The survey
says".
