Re: New plants...

Oh my gosh! You have a Livistona chinensis and it's hardy in 5/6? Wow! That's one of my favorite palms. Absolutely beautiful, even when it gets big. And it is absolutely stunning when combined with a long-leaf pine or two as a landscape focal point. Keep us informed of its progress, please.

I grow crepe myrtle here in Indiana. I have had my big one for about four
years. It is PETITE ORCHIDT CRAPE MYRTLE Lagerstroemia indica 'Monhid' from
Monrovia.

This year I received three more dwarf ones that may be hardy here. I will
have to wait and see on that one.

My Livingstonia chinensis that I left outside last winter is doing great and
Zingiber Mioga also is hardy here.
