And I'm glad your hummingbirds like our Aussie grevillea – all our honeyeaters love them too, of course.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14653345793213312242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-439775590468820468.post-63762357139240444922009-03-15T22:07:00.000-07:002009-03-15T22:07:00.000-07:00Randy, the viola doesn't put on a big show, but it...Randy, the viola doesn't put on a big show, but it is a sweet little thing to see. And it would be lovely to be in a grove of nectarines in full bloom! Too bad the Necta Zee isn't very tasty, I'm thinking of replacing it with something else.<BR/><BR/>flowrgirl1, thanks!<BR/><BR/>Daphne, I hope the Arp works for you, I'll be interested to see if it does.

Hooray for your traveling rosemary, and Arp sounds like a good one for our ever-colder winters up here.

They are easy and fun. Favas- both- are interesting too. It is fun to see plants that we don't have on the east coast.

I'm in zone 6 and have tried overwintering Hill Hardy rosemary in the past. I always fail. Now I must find some Arp rosemary.
