Hello Mike, I really like your simple but very true statement about gardening in California. Here in Portugal the conditions are comparable and I am still in the first phase...... trying to find out what grows well here, bulbs including. But those plants that do well already give me a warning about spacing, height, neighborfriendliness, propagation rate and so on. It is relieving to see that I am not alone.....
