Banana Leaf Patio Umbrella Tree

contact@thegreenhead.com (Michael Kiely) — Tue, 01 May 2007 00:32:21 -0500

Why do we even bother to attempt to create a better patio umbrella, since nature always does it better. When it's windy, plants and trees stand strong (usually), when it's raining they shelter us well (lightning not figured in) and when I'm drinking a cocktail outside, they make it seem much more tropical and peaceful. Regular patio umbrellas hardly compare when you think about it, which is why I want the best of both worlds, the Banana Leaf Patio Umbrella Tree. This umbrella simply redefines cool as far as outdoor patio umbrellas go, but unfortunately doesn't come with any bananas or a monkey friend.

I'm sitting here in a darkened office at night here at Green Head HQ near Chicago and it's -5°F with a -20° wind chill! Global warming, wha? So anyways I'm trying to think positive and find things that make me think of spring and a warmer climate. Now the Hanging Strawberry Basket Kit is no where near as cool, weird and innovative as the Upside-Down Tomato Garden from previous years, but it does make growing a giant batch of juicy, sweet, healthy and delicious strawberries a total snap. Plus, by growing them in an elevated hanging basket, you also get to keep out most of those furry fruit-loving animal thieves as well. I love strawberries, but unfortunately I'm still freezing...
