LOOK WHO CAME TO WATCH US GROW THINGS. 
My favourite of the plants in pots in my back courtyard was described to me when I got it as a 'noddy violet'. This is not a plant type I've been able to find easily on the web to show you. It may be a wildflower of some kind. In any case, I have it in a hanging pot and it has grown effusively, overflowing its pot and hanging down beautifully, almost always flowering, over the past year since I've had it. It looks something like this, except mine is wilder and longer...

There's an aloe vera plant in a pot (also for medicinal purposes), looking something like this...
There's also another succulent in a solo pot and two bromeliads. The bromeliads seem sick. I haven't had any luck caring for them. I've passed on the care of them to C, who has a much more luscious pot plant garden in his courtyard, evidence of a greener thumb than mine. But neither of us are having much luck with the bromeliads. Any tips appreciated. 
@Mazarita@Love the noddy violet, can't find it on the net. @CheerBear@Former-Member@frog@Bubbles3 Just planted some sweet peas in my garden, so I'm putting some in our community garden also.
