I want bird of paradise and bat plant. I also agree a banana tree would be very nice.

Hopefully I have saved my astrolomeria plants? I've just ventured to the allotment and picked them up.They are now nestled seurely on the bedroom windowsill!The frost had blackened most of the leaves,but hopefully the stolons underneath will be ok? I'll wait until the blackened tops dry out a bit before tidying up the plants.
The banana plant has five 'pups', one of which is nearly as big as the parent plant! It is standing behind a french door having spent the summer on the decking. In the Spring I may try to seperate at least one pup and put it into it's own pot?

Cattleya, cymbidium and calathea orchids. Bumping back to possible reality a large camelia bush. They just wouldn't like my soil or climate so I don't bother trying to grow them.

A Cashew nut tree would be nice, all I need is the tropical weather to grow it.

A perennial, everbearing Courgette. Failing that, I'll settle for any courgette that will fruit next summer.
