It's amazing you say this and has interested me so much. When Ray was
trying to remember the name I said "Chatham Island forget me not', even
though I knew this wasn't it. I thought it might just prod his memory into
action but it only produced a hiccup of recollection! As soon as you and
David wrote Mertensia I told Ray and of course, memory being what it is, he
said "That's IT". So annoying to have lost his plants some time ago but it
does look such a pretty thing. The person enquiring about it lives in
Oxford so I can't see it being too happy there. What do you think?

It's habitat is coastal shingle. So you'd need to be able to replicate
that.


Hmmmm. Not likely for her in Oxford, then. ;-(
