I've heard that rats make great pets -looking forward to hearing more about Tanzy & Maria!

That begonia is stunning. I also love that spider photo.

Great photo of Tanzy. I had so much fun meeting them in person! Thanks for your hospitality yesterday! I wish the Cypress Gardens was blooming then. :(

My aunt-in-law was just talking about a great white daisy with a purple center last night and I was clueless. Now I can email her that it is an osteosperamum and pretend I spent the whole evening looking for it!
