hibiscus

-- [ From: nonayobusiness * EMC.Ver #2.3 ] --

Hi Julia, I've grown a hibiscus inside for about 4 or 5 years.  It used to
grow in a greenhouse and would  flower year round,  but now  it spends the
summers  outside and flowers a lot, and during the cold season  it sits
either in front of a  patio door or  in a bay window, both facing pretty 
much  west.  Then it flowers  on and off.  It produces  big  cream colored 
blooms with maroon deep inside.

Gerry, maybe the sun in California is stronger  than in Tennesee?


Julia, when  I  grow tomatoes,  I don't use any pesticides on them at all,
and I've never noticed any iridescent  quality  to the skin.  I would guess
it could  be something about the variety.  I  grow Sweet Millions  and some
big variety (this year)  but in past  seasons I've grown yellow pear, Tiny
Tim, Celebrity, and lots of others.  Never  noticed iridescence.  Maybe
because I was too busy cleaning  and chomping  them?  How  much  were the
tomatoes per pound? 

 I  just came back from a 2 day  Bat  mitzvah celebration (Jewish coming of
age for a 12 yo girl) and I don't think I'll  be able to eat food for a few
days I'm so stuffed!  All we did all weekend was EAT!  Who can recommend a
good diet for me?   A very LARGE woodchuck  has begun eating my yard, and
is ignoring my broccoli baited hav-a-hart  trap.  Tried cabbage first.  He
prefers lupines  and columbine,  etc.  He peeks  out from under  my
neighbor's shed, mocking me.  Any suggestions?   I don't have a gun.
