We were reading about them in Canadian Gardening Magazine and he was impressed. That's why he didn't say 'oh, fer heavens' sake - more plants', when I came home with 'em. Thank you for your i. d. talents, people - I knew I could depend on you here.

OP Carly Member Joined: Jul 2004 Toronto, Canada	A pepperomia? Never heard of that one - anyhoo, it looks good. Doesn't look like the Peace lily should be planted in the ground so I'll keep it going in the office window. I have seen the polka dot plant in people's gardens, but I think I'll wait a bit. The other one - the pepperomia - it looks like somebody I might get on well with. I gotta' get a green pepper plant too - they are so nice, the foliage is great.
