What makes me angry is I live in a small town and just have locally homegrown greenhouses and only one that carries a bit of everything.Before I learned of this site I was quite uninformed about plants.Now that I have learned more about a little of everything and learn more everyday.I am angry!!!!!! I have had quite a few plants and was never told that I could keep them in the house over winter,I was just told that, "now you know this is an annual".For example I had a Beautiful ,now I'm not sure if it was a, Lotus Vine, Parrot's Beak Lotus maculatus or a Parrot's Beak, Coral Gem, Pelican's Beak Lotus berthelotii , but needless to say I don't have it anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And now another thing that bugs me is when you see a plant ,it's beautiful,it's perfect ,you have to have it and all the tag says is ...Tropical.Don't you just love that.At least give me a common name!


That is my vent of the day.What is yours?????

So thank you everyone here for teaching me!!!!!!!!!! You each have something to teach someone.And I am very greatful.

This was my plant at least I did get a picture.
