- Love your passion flower picture, where did you get the plant? I live in the Chicago area, St Charles, about 45 miles directly west of downtown. Haven't been able to find many around here, one supplier is Heinze Brothers in St Charles.

LOVE my frenchies....they are my love connections.....love to have them around me, kissing, holding, snuggling........I show and breed them, and like gardening, it's taken many years to become who I am in this breed.
Not to many folks know frenchies.......so thank you for acknowledging my "furkids".........ok, let's go back to our regularly programmed show......gardening.....or I'll get kicked off here.....;o)
