Have you brought any seeds back from South Africa? I think that's the
likely place to find Ruspolia.

I haven't been there since long before I met Ray and Ray has never been
there. However, we do have friends and customers who have a house there but
we've had the plant longer than they've had the plant! Ruspolia are grown
in Hawaii too, so if we got hold of it ourselves, I think that's the more
likely source. I understand from David that they're v. popular in
California, too and we were there about 5 years ago.
Ah I see. I thought you were talking about collecting seeds in the
wild.
