Apology for reply to the list


I must apologize for replying to the list, when I saw the information
about that wonderful webpage concerning central Texas.  I am recovering
from the flu, and wasn't as observant as I should have been.

To explain my response a bit, and try and relate it to other gardeners'
quests: now that I am stuck inside because of the weather, I pour
through catalogs and fantasize about all the symbolic plants I can work
with, come spring weather.  The message about Texas plants made me want
to have some from my native area.  I have already planted a hazelnut
(the Celtic symbol for wisdom), and other plants which are more familiar
to me from literature than from experience.  (Maybe that comes from
being an English literature major?)   I suppose some of these "symbols"
will grow better for me than others.  Is anyone else into this sort of
planting?  What sort of a garden will I end up with?  (I currently want
to buy some of those lovely acanthus plants, because of their use on
Greek columns.) Should I be stopped, before my garden becomes a total
mishmash?  Or is there a Literary Gardens list?
