Biltmore Estate Conservatory
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
I don't know the name of this plant -- we saw it in the Conservatory at the Biltmore Estate. I really liked the colors and lines of these leaves. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything to identify the plant for me.
It is a very pretty plant. It is in my House Plant book which I cannot find right now. I don't do houseplants anymore---now I had better find it. Oh no it's not where it should be----now it's bigging me. BYE!! MB
My husband is an engineer, he doesn't like wood fire. he doesn't like the fumes. Once we stayed in a house with a fire place, I used to think it romantic. he blocked it up.
I wonder if anything will be blooming in the gardens on March 20. Bill and I will be at Ridgecrest and will stop quickly at Biltmore on the way home if there is something to look at outside.

I used to have one of these as a houseplant! But that was long ago and far away and I can't remember it's name now, phooey!

An interesting plant, and very pretty. I don't know what it is, but would be interested to know.
Great leaves deliciously soft tones, exquisite beauty, like me.

It is a tropical plant, I remember seeing it. I will try to find the name for you.
I don't know the name, but I do like the color variation. It's lovely.
