Hi all
Does anybody have any info on this plant as just been given it.
Looking on google doesn't bring up much as far as I can see so if
anybody has some idea's to the proper keywords or a link would be
appreciated.
The only link to a picture I could findhttp://www.worldofstock.com/closeups/NPF1034.php* *is definitly the
plant I have been given.
I have various plant books but cannot seem to find it ,maybe because
it comes from outside of UK or there is another name etc.
Thanks for your replies.
Carl.
