Christina, Sweden said...: Love those (for me that is) exotic flowers. Tried to grow some aussie plants from seeds but the only survivor so far is a Kangaroo Paw. I do have another small plant and I'm hoping it is a gum tree (snow gum) but so far its so very very tiny. I keep my fingers crossed for it. thanks for comment on my Macro!; July 20, 2009 at 9:07 PM
