thanks Stewart! once again you've educated me and proven once more that I
learn something new every day and still want to go to college to learn more
about Horticulture! REALLY!! I'm being serious. I liked this so well, I
sent it to myself so I'd be able to put it into my garden journal. Now if I
could only identify the fern I brought with me from my house in Nashville 13
years ago that has adapted itself to direct sunlight of south and western
exposure that I've nicknamed my "Stainless steal, cast iron Nashville
walking fern" because it's tenacity towards sunlight and toughness, and that
it sends out "toes" for the next year's ferns to rise from, hense the name
"walking fern" I have pictures...............but you'd have to e-mail me
to see them. I don't post here anymore and apparently my posted pictures on
the newsgroup that allows pictures gets no responses either.....

BTW: The leaves on this plant actually look like cannabis leaves so I
wonder if the two plant are related.

All plants are related, but Cleome and Cannabis aren't particularly
closely related. Cleome is in Capparaceae in Capparales aka Brassicales
in Eurosids II; Cannabis is in Cannabaceae in Rosales in Eurosids I.
Cleome is closer to mallow and maple than to cannabis; cannabis is
closer to rose and elm than to Cleome.
