Teaxsgal77, we are always behind you and RJ when it comes to blooms. His ginger was blooming a long time before mine started, and I have only one bloom on the iliies.

Texasbigleaves, the hibiscus is 'Amazon Queen' bought at Calloways in Duncanville, $39.99 in a 2 gal. pot.

JanetOS, thank you for the nice words. I found the alocasia stingray at a nursery here in Dallas. My favorite mail order nursery is Natural Selections Exotics for aroids. Their plants are usually very big and healthy.

robcorreia, I am not familiar with the Farfugium japonicum 'Gigantea'. I will have to do a little research on it. It sounds very interesting.

Truetropical77. What are the names of your new Hibiscus, and where did you get them? they look very healthy and big.

Sunshinesw, that is one very impressive bloom.
