Give aways and downsizing - 6 replies We are going to drown in pots come end of the warm season. We have plenty of plants that would appreciate more TLC on their own. Funny, plants grow on us like pets – we want to provide care, we have no time, we feel guilty etc. Anyhow come this autumn we need to build a functional greenhouse to store our fast growing “babies” b... |

Bamboo plant - 17 replies Does anyone here know where to buy an Ontario friendly bamboo? Those offered in Vancouver are way too expensive. I’ve been thinking about yellow grove bamboo which lives wild in Pennsylvania and perhaps with climate change would survive our temps?

Turns out they are 77 species of wild orchids in Canada out of which 61 in Ontario and out of which 44 in the Bruce Peninsula – some 3 hours away from Toronto. I’m already looking forward to the next shows: ... |
