Angela,

I love your pictures (once again), especially of the cordylines. And Wili's Gold is one of my favorites and I grow it here at the nursery.

Thanks Wal!! :)

David, thanks for sharing! I've always liked cinnamon trees.

I really like that leaf on the Browneopsis... nice!

In the first post I mentioned that I'm counting everything that's red, orange, pink, fuchsia, purple... I widened the spectrum a little :winkie:

Angela,

I would, but I just don't have nearly the collection I once had. A few years back, I had at one time right around 100 varities. But because landscapers only buy the same 10-15 varities, I decided to scale back on collecting and production. But, for you dear, I'll see what I can do. Have patience and you might have to remind me. :)

Angela,

If you like reds, you should grow other heliconias and different sort of gingers, especially alpinias & torches. There is nothing like them!! But then, I am bias, because I am a big fan of gingers and heliconias. It used to be all what we grew when we were renting.... because we could always dig them up to take them with us...
