There so many mgs with splendid foliage. We get transfixed with mug shots of new and interesting flower photos, but we need to stop somtimes and smell the foliage too. (well, I thought that was funny) I am a foliage person, because, we spend so much time anticipating the bloom season, when the foliage is right in front of us. This winter I have selected species with very interesting foliage. It seems that we ought to make good foliage shots an important ingrediant of the plant files. We seldom give the foliage its day in the sun so to speak, so here goes, showing the beginning of my foliage choices for this year.

These seedlings are a month old and the vines were around 2', and frequently branching. The gigantic lable is the result of collasal underplanning in former fotos that caused a lot of confusion. To appreciate the foliage please enlarge.
