Pink Pansy plumeria
I bought this at the 15th Annual Hawaiian Plumeria Festival Presented by the Southern California Plumeria Society in August 2014. It had been on my wish list for quite a while and it didn't disappoint - I love the colors, large flowers, and sweet grape scent.

Bok choi
Fushimi peppers
I love these Japanese peppers I got as starts locally from my friend, owner of Vilardi Gardens. From the Kitazawa Seed Company description: "This sweet Japanese pepper is thin-walled and glossy bright green. The fruits are slender, tapered and grow to 6" in length. It is very easy to grow, produces good quality and prolific harvests." I serve them simply pan-roasted with a sprinkle of togarashi seasoning.
Moro Blood Orange
I love these Moro blood oranges! My favorite is my Meyer lemon tree, but this is a close second. I bought this in the spring of 2014 from SummerWinds in Glendale, and was happily surprised to get a large harvest from this little tree the first season. I learned that you have to let them ripen until you see the rind starting to turn red or otherwise you won't see color when you cut into them.
