I'm still hunting for someone with Brugs close by...anyone in a close distance to me I would be glad to come and get them...and I have lots of seeds and some rooted plants to trade...need to make a trade list. But my seeds are on my journal under, Seeds I Have.

Now another tropical question. I got this plant called Heliconia at my little nursery around the corner. I have no idea what kind it is, but reading about it, I'm not sure it will do well in my garden. One it says constantly moist soil...well I'm on a hill and have no constant moist spot in my yard...when plants say that, they never make it. So now I'm thinking I need to take it back. Anyone have experience with this tropical plant in Central FL?

Here is a photo and then the flowers...sorry they are a bit blurry it was getting dark out.
