About Living in a Box
- 2007 will be the year of change in this little house and garden we call "The Box". We have been renting this house for 2 years, and never did much with it (or the garden) as we thought we'd be buying our own home. But we are likely to be here another few years before we can buy, so we are making the house and garden more comfortable. I am also looking for an allotment nearby.

Hi,
I didn't know that this plant was the national flower of Zimbabwe. It's one of my favorites and I have tubers of it right now that I have to plant.
Happy GTS

That flower is amazing! Where can you order them? Could I grow them in zone 7? They're very nice! Thanks for posting this! :)
