Some of these plants will grow in cooler climate zones but when winter arrives, they will die out. In the learning center there is a climate zone map so you can find your zone and how close your are to the tropics. I have done a few previous pages on some warm weather plants and have moved the pages to this section. This will make it easier for you to find these plant specimens.

Also, in our store, TK Creations there are some beautiful tropical items such as clocks, mouse pads, journals, wall plaques, pillows and ornaments. My husband Tom has taken all these photos.
