    Hello all,
    just found this great site and couldn't wait to join. I live on the tiny island of Barbados in the Caribbean. I have a two acre garden with lily ponds and a shade house. I grow a variety of plants including orchids. It is very hot at the moment and would love some rain to keep me and my plants happy.

    [​IMG] Hello islandgal.
    And very warm greetings to you,
    from a not-quite-tropical island (doggone it :-| )
    off the coast of North Carolina.

    I can't wait to learn more about your gardens, they sound fantastic.
    I love orchids and tropicals, :rolleyes: but they have to be coddled in my part of the world.
