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 and I going. The mention of grasshoppers threw us
over the edge. We laughed hysterically at the thought of a room so
crammed with plant material (tall plants bent over at the ceiling; think
Dr. Seuss) that people would only be able to hunch over and walk single
file through it. Then, we regained our professional composure, rather
thin and filmy it was, and put together our plant list.

Thank you again to all of you that are making this project fun!

Lucinda and Wendy
