I'm with you on that, ardesia. It's costing me a small fortune now that I have 'discovered' that my shady border area can support all these gorgeous tropical foliage plants. And orchids . . . oh, and the begonias love it too! Rita's purple firespike starts are going in over there as well.

I didn't know Calatheas ever bloomed, I've used them as foliage plants but they're very cold tender. Maybe if I can get them through a winter they'd bloom for me.

My dark leafed cannas are developing variegation, for some reason. It's pretty, but I'd like to know what changed with them.
