Author Message   Whis4ey  My Garden Posted on Saturday, September 01, 2007 - 07:23 am EST :    The Gunnera has really taken off this past year (due no doubt to our very wet summer) Some of the leaves are over 7 feet across when stretched out, and it has grown to something like 15 feet high .......

Whatever you did, good job! Could you (or someone else) pose with it for another picture to post? (I recently discovered that I apparently have no concept of size, so to me, your Gunnera looks only as big as Elephant Ears that I have grown in apple baskets, and they were only a few feet tall. Haha!)

Skip the set designers... filmmakers can just go straight to your place and start shooting. What a great place to play Make Believe. I can imagine those two lovely ladies did just that. Haha! Thank you for that post. It's wonderful and wondrous. Heirloomgardens - Massachusetts, Zone "5b"   Starzgarden  Posted on Sunday, September 02, 2007 - 09:10 am EST :    My goodness!
