G'day Ulrich
I was just browsing eBay after reading ng's and found this listing that might help you....NO affiliation in any way with the seller. They are seeds and not plants as you requested but maybe suit if the latter are not available. http://cgi.ebay.com.au/SOUTH-AFRICAN...cmd ZViewItem Ulrich Sudhaus wrote: If anybody knows about a nursery which could supply some or all of the above plants, also known as "South African Orchid Bush" I would be very grateful.

HI HC, Thanks for the info. I have got some seeds. My wife & I went around a couple of parks and found some still viable seeds underneath a few mature bushes. We moved into a new subdivision on a reclaimed melon field. A 3/4 acre block with neither a tree or a bush on it. With the water restrictions getting more severe these "Galpinii" are just the answer for me.They grow reasonably fast and are draught resistant, flowering for most of the year. I had ask for plants to save myself a couple of years.

G'day Ulrich
I've got some Bauhinia blakeana seedlings if you want some? They self-sow through the garden and I pot them on to give away. My tree is a dark pink but who knows what colour the seedlings might be? It's just coming into flower now and I have some seed from last season as well as some seedlings? I think these trees would look really nice along a fence line or down either side of a long driveway.....spectacular when in bloom. Bronwyn ;-) Ulrich Sudhaus wrote: HI HC, Thanks for the info.
