On to another bit of business
(namely, Brugmansia)

My Lady Friend laughed and said "I can just see it" when I told her about walking home yesterday, spying a four-foot-tall, yellow-flowered Brugmansia at a shop across the street, and then turning in midstride to cross four lanes (no traffic) in order to see it up close.

It was about seven months ago that she and I were out together and my mouth fell open when I saw a double-flowered Datura at a different flower stand. Then, like now (especially now, since I'll be leaving in four months), it's all about the seeds.

Expect to read more about my best floral friend's cousin in the coming weeks.

One does what one can in the space available. I could show you a lot about how and where people plant in Korea.
