Need to look up the Chenille plant I'm pretty sure where he put it will receive too much sun but maybe not. I don't know the Latin name and my books, I can't find it. Any idea Neil?

Cherie, Wow! Ed really did get a good price on all those baskets--- don't know which one is prettier! ... But maybe I'll snitch that middle one from you while you're asleep tonight! Hilarious! I had one of those Chenille plants years ago that someone gave me when I was sick... well, it got sick and died, but at least I didn't!! I loved that plant but just didn't know how to care for it! I think it was used to Greenhouse conditions, not exactly what I have here! So, Cherie or whoever knows, How do you care for those pretty, fuzzy blooming plants??! Blinking

Oh, I got a new plant today, a Hibiscus--- light pink blooms with a dark center--- forgot the name, will look tomorrow & take a pic. Also, my sweet husband surprised me with this very pretty little Garden Angel statue --- I just love it! I'll also take a photo of her... I'm goin' to bed soon. Group hug

Thats the one Neil thanks I knew if anybody would know you would...............

Connie I had a chenille plant when I was married to the first husband. I had had a car accident and was in the hospital for 6 weeks. His brother, knowing how I felt about my house plants, put himself on plant duty. What he didn't drown he put on the desert. I had 68 house plants in two rooms. In 6 weeks that idiot had managed to kill every single one..................
