Foliage Appeal in The Green House

Fern (second year) and Aeroplane plant
(first year, Bruce Miller).


Kimberly Queen Fern (first year),
surprisingly survives in our garden for 3 months now.
We tried Boston Fern which has similar look
but they didn't like it here and died
in a matter of weeks.
More about this in another posting.


Schefflera plant, purchased from WalMart,
has been growing well and now is safe in the green house.


Coleus and purple fountain grass
have been dug up from the yard
and transferred to safety.


I am trying to save these Polka Dot plants
for next year, too. Other plants that
I've dug to safety are sweet potato vines,
petunia and chamomile seedlings.
