| Very nice pics jim!!! Those banana pics are amazing. I cant believe how big they all got! The thai giant is definitely a giant! And the castor beans look amazing also!! I just got my Hibiscus acetosella 'Red Shield' in the mail today and Im hoping that it looks just like a castor bean, only with hibiscus flowers! (And I think its also not poisonous which is a plus.) Thanks for sharing! Its hard to believe that everything will be covered in snow and taken in soon! -Alex |

| Thanks guys/gals- No Gunnera anywhere anymore )-: The camera really does all the work,you just have to make sure the picture is clear when you click-just a Kodak 8.2 megapixel from Wally-World |

| As you can tell, I dont know jack crap about plants, so let me rephrase. Whats that plant with the big #%@ oval leaves your standing next to? Thats a killer plant. How hardy? |
|
| That is the legendary Thai giant(Colocasia),bought for $12 from Brains botanicals on E-bay in a 4" pot last spring! They get seriously big,seriously fast! |
|
| Here he is back in June-4" pot for reference. Each leaf nearly doubled as you can see.
