This is a wow plant.

I had never heard of it, and that was the first page I pulled up.  It is
beautiful and it should do well here.  Wow.

My garden soil is moisture retentive.
I'll do some more reading on this, but this looks to be a winning plant
even if it doesn't help my specific problem this time.  I love plants
like this!
I found this, too..

Kiwi is also on my list of plants to acquire!
(excitement)
$45 for three plants is only slightly more expensive than a
prescription, and it never needs refilling!
Of course, it takes a while to produce, but that's ok..
Muchas gracias, Lynda...
