Growing Anthuriums
I fell in love with anthurium during a visit to the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden, just north of Hilo on the Big Island. Wandering along a misty, winding trail, I turned a corner and found myself in front of a grove of glossy, heart-shaped leaves crowned with impossibly vivid blooms. Often called the flamingo flower, it’s prized for long-lasting, jewel-toned blooms.

Seed Stories
If I’m going to invest a lot of time and effort to grow a plant from seed, I would really like to know it has a chance of succeeding and maturing. I thought I would share with you a few of my favourite Canadian-bred (or stewarded) varieties.

Hardy Berries
Red, black, blue, purple, pink, white, green and orange. Eaten raw or turned into scrumptious desserts.

Know your growing zones
Canada´s plant hardiness zones are well known to Canadian gardeners. The original hardiness indices and zones were developed in the early 1960´s through regression models of several climatic paramaters and plant survival data from numerous locations across the country. Since that time Canada´s climate has changed and climate interpolation techniques have improved.
