Re: Blurring the boundary

have to agree looks lovely but accident waiting to happen. Quik fix - not positive it would work but applying a polymer sand to remove space could be effective - also fast to do

Re: Do you know what I am??

Sure looks like a china doll to me. These tend to be fuller tan the aralias. Was this bought in Toronto? I work at HD and know that china doll is sometimes available for purchase.

Re: What kind of melon?

Could be wrong but skin texture sure looks like a cantelope. Hard to be sure as it is still quite green. if it turns a soft tan colour that would help confirm my guess. Also know cantelope as a musk melon.
