So being down here in the appendix of the USA we do get a lot of exciting things in WalMart, I just bought 4 pots of 5 twisted Hibiscus of varying colours, PDoyle don't complain you can grow all sorts of things up there that wont grow the same down here - Roses for instance and Clematis -my roses bloom for a day, and clematis barely last a season. Of course humidity is high enough for Tacca's and I have started African Tulip Trees, All kinds of citrus growing nicely and to top it all and make you all really jealous - we have mickey Mouse around the corner!!!! Now you can all go really green with envy! Oh yes had my first hummingbird in the garden - but I first saw them in D.C. Last September. We do not have a bridge anything like the one in Chesapeake Bay - now that is really something else!
