RE: Teresa's gift


Queen's tears ( I know kitty just posted the real name and I've already
fogotten it- Bilbergia something or another).  Likes well drained soil,
yours can stay out all winter since mine does here.  Mine's in a pot, since
it fits the growth habit better in my opinion (and I live in the land of
clay- not exactly well draining).  Likes being watered from above (e.g. rain
or from the hose).  Drought tolerant once established.  Hmmm, that's all i
guess.  Hope it grows well for you.  A picture of the mother plant is on my
yahoo briefcase if you want to see it.  I got it several years ago at the
Santa Cruz aboretum here in California.

I just returned from the Southern Garden History conference in Atlanta &
found
your package! Thank you!!!
Would you please remind my Pleistocene brain of the name & culture!!!
Smelling
the Banana Shrub again-a favorite from my childhood- seems to have erased my
short term memory.
