You are so right about the feeling a garden evokes in a person. That feeling of peace and contentment is a sure sign that you've succeeded in achieving a garden that speaks to your soul. It's that part of us...deep down inside...working its way to the surface...our essence reflected in the garden. How wonderful and Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106128705768954876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-25555918866142950782011-05-31T08:31:47.663-04:002011-05-31T08:31:47.663-04:00Meems - Your garden is ALWAYS so inspirational!!Meems - Your garden is ALWAYS so inspirational!!Wicked Gardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01540250068640733537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3160717311376074400.post-68336418425778863402011-05-29T23:49:29.101-04:002011-05-29T23:49:29.101-04:00Bom,

Australian ferns get quite tall if they make past the frosty winters.<br /><br />Siesta Sister,<br />I don't think I've ever seen one for sale here either. Susan at Simply Susan gave me one she calls a lotus begonia that is VERY similar. I bought these that have a bit more red veining up in Tallahassee of all places.
