| You are moving to Venice? You lucky lucky gal. I don't think the weather is so different in Venice -- it's a coastal city, so there aren't huge extremes of temperature. They do have a winter, but it's more like a San Francisco winter. You can grow whatever you want there. People's gardens are full of roses, jasmine, (I believe some palms), artichokes, citrus in pots, etc. You've probably been to Italy before! From my experience, I'd say Italians are some of the gardeningest people on Earth. Have fun. Dawn |
