Friday of last week some friends and I took a road trip to Louiseville to check out Brian's collection of tropicals. We had a great time oooh-ing and aaww-ing and picking Brian's brain. My friend, Deb, said she'd learned so much she was going to blow her cerebral cortex, lol.

Of course, I could'nt come home empty handed, so a Musa zebrina 'Rojo', a big Petasites with purply stems, a Tetrapanix, Colocosia 'Coffee Cups', and a tall ornamental grass I've now forgotten the name of, had to make their way back to my garden :) And I'm really cheap, so that tells you all were really good deals, lol.

I'll rely on Brian to chime in and id most of these, as there was no way my feeble brain could hold onto much with so many great things to see.
Enjoy!
