Yep, got a Lime Zinger from Cassie last spring, and it's doing great. You were already getting some Blue Hawaii starts, don't worry!

Somebody else told us they didn't think it could be Insignia, either, remember? Anyway, I love it and could care less about the name. Now I have 3 shades of pink, Cherub, Stardancer and this one. I just ran out to have a sniff, (Bbrrr! chilly out there). Yes, the flowers are wider than any of the others. I'll post another picture Saturday when more flowers are open.

Here's Coleus 'Inky Fingers' - it has really great intense colors in low light but fades out a bit if it gets brighter.

Clero Ugandense from KayJones doing great and blooming such pretty colors.

Lots of yummy healthy greens to keep us old people going - cool March weather has been great for the kale, celery, mizuna, mint (mm mojitos!) and fennel.

Last and best, the mango tree already has fruits the size of plums, and its putting on a second nice bloom - we will have a good long mango season this summer!
