Yes, i'd have to have someone stay on and guide me in the growing. But I'm a quick study so I'd accept the challenge just to be somewhere that has summer all year long!

I get that SAD thing too. We're FINALLY seeing some sunshine today. After these last two plus weeks of rain and grey skies, I almost need to go sit in a tanning booth for a vitamin D bump!

that red flower is torch ginger and looks and feels like those wax teeth and lips we used to chew on as kids. (well at least I used to chew on them LOL! remember the coke bottle wax candy filled with colored sugar water?) I might be dating my self here.
BTW, in the photos, I'm the one with short hair.
