I don't know about Canada, but 20 years ago I lived in Pasadena, California for a few years and we had a feijoa at our back door. It produced a bumper crop every year in spite of the desert-like climate. In fact, we tried growing other vegetables (much to the amusement of the neighbours)with absolutely no success, but the feijoa thrived. -- Derek Goring ---------------------------------------------------------------------- "Fashion" said Lord Goring, "is what one wears oneself.
