AZH@... Subject: [AZH] animal names
Hi Everyone,
This summer, in our display
greenhouse, we are going to present an “animal” garden to go along
with the opening of our children’s garden. I’m looking for
tropical plants with animal names. I’ve got teddy bear palm,
foxtail palm, bat plant, panda plant…there must be more.
Isn’t there? I’m just not familiar with common names.
Thank you for any help you can
offer. Also, and I’ve asked this question before but my new
computer didn’t accept any favorites files apparently. There is a
nursery for very unusual tropical plants that has been mentioned on this site
before. Does anyone have a favorite tropical plant nursery that they use
and like?
Thank you again,
Lucinda

I think so, but since I have two way-too-large ones in the conservatory I decided not to put one in the seasonal house. All the responses yesterday got Wendy...
