Hi Carol:

I'm not sure what I'm growing up there - lots of things springing up that I don't know the names of. The horticulturist did the initial planting, and I know he gave me a list, but in the downstairs renos that followed, my list went visiting somewhere and hasn't come home.

In fact, I have a couple things springing up now, that the leaves look the same size and shape (sort of like skunk cabage), but on one the leaves are smooth and shiny, and on the other they're hairy. It's a puzzle to me - I'll post them here, maybe you know.

I got my rainchain on the net - it was too expensive to get one from Japan - the shipping was a killer. I think it was http://www.rainchains.com They're really lovely.
