The leaves look like a Nicotiana to me and the number of petals is right
as
is the height but that's all.


Don't think so


Neither do I :-))

but I'll put it to 'the management' tomorrow. ;-) I just
wish Ray could remember where he got this. It's either a present,
something
from another nursery or a seeds picked up on a holiday somewhere. Pretty
wide field........!


Yup. But he has a lot on his plate. Sometimes I can't remember where I got
things from and I don't have a nursery to remember.



The annoying thing is that it was carefully labelled but at some point in
the potting on, the label has been lost. He is given a *lot* of things by
kind people and it isn't always easy to remember who gave what or when.
And then there's the seeds......I emptied the pockets of one of his jackets
yesterday and out came a cloud of Leucodendron argenteum seeds he'd
forgotten he'd got! ;-) Do you grow that in Australia? It's something we
want to try here but doubt it will get through our winters - worth a try
though because it's so lovely.
