Diane,

I sure would like to see you HF.  On the East Coast up here in New York HF is
a medium sized plant that often does flop.  About 20 inches more or less.  I
have a few of them and they bloomed in November and I suppose they are dead
now.  There is something about HF that needs to be explained.  The method of
increase is unlike the others.  I cannot remember tonight but Marge will
remember.  I keep this info on the tag which is underground so I don't kill
the plant cleaning up in the spring.
