Like theBeatles White Album."--Janice’s brother, Bill I sincerely appreciate all the wonderful support HIMGA members have given me -- a big MAHALO to you!

Carol - sure! That would be outstanding! My collection of gardening books is nearly as large as my collection of plants...but this one sounds special, if you know what I mean. Epecially since I do all my (or nearly all), planting in containers!
I love tropicals, but living in zone 5 it scares me to death to try them because all I can think about is "how am I going to get this beauty through the winter?". Could you get me one too? Send me a D-Mail on what I need to do. :^)
