Linda H wrote: Hi again, Roberta. I just typed 'Brunfelsia australis' into Google images ( http://images.google.com/images?q=Br...=en&lr=&s tar t=20&sa=N ) and yes, that's a pretty mauve flower so I can see why some people have adopted it as an ornamental plant. I'll be sure to warn anyone I see with it about its toxic properties for dogs. I only wish it were attractive to the next-door neighbour's cats!

OTOH, you can mash the ******* with anything you like and it comes back. It was the pox in swmbo's dowry and I'm not allowed to eradicate it. |

Not as invasive as the cats from next door, I assure you! -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "Parenthood is like the modern stone washing process for denim jeans.
