It's back online now Donna. :)

They definetely have neat things on there- for us in the loooooooooow zonessss..LOL

Thanks for letting me know.

LOL.......but we can get them shipped to us now (wintering here however is a whole different story ;)

No kidding!

Thanks! I've sent them an email.

The tropical fruits look interesting. I might have to get a few of them :)

So there are a few tropicals that tickle your fancy spectrum.......extra bonus, besides the fruit, is their gorgeous flowers! ;)

I already have a few tropical fruits growing already, although it will still be a year or two before any are ready to actually set fruit. But I'm always looking to add to my collection :)

p.s. he also sells Lemon Grass!!! :D Ü :D

Yes, that one already caught my eye :)

I'm doing an experiment. I was at an oriental store and bought some lemon grass. I have it in water and it's starting to show some roots.

Thanks again for the heads up on this outfit. I'm feeding my hoya addiction again, and have now completely spent my income tax return...lol.
Christine.

Your welcome Christine......I do believe I'll be sending a few dollars that way myself. ;)

Donna I'd try that myself but even the grocery store Lemon Grass isn't found too easily here. :(

Do you want me to see if I can get some for you or do you want to wait and see if mine does grow?
:) Donna

Thanks Donna but I've got it on order now.

Ah shucks....was trying to help you out.
