I'm trying to grow a plumeria and a heliconia right now. I'm already having a bit of trouble with the heliconia. If anyone out there is in to tropical plants and wants to give up some information, it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for reading this, I'm off to post a message about my heliconia.

It's amazing to hear someone actually knows where "grover beach" is. I see you live in Hollywood Hills, I"m greatly jealous! My husband and I are thinking of moving to Sacramento, I don't know how I'd live with out the KTLA morning news! Thanks everyone for such a warm welcome response! I'll definately be visiting often!
