wild flowering plant indidinous to britain but not switzerland cira 1905?!
 
Hello, i'm reearching for a BBC TV drama and I just wondered if anyone can suggest a wild flowering plant that can be bouhgt in flower NOW, that would have appeared in the british isles in the early 1900's but WOULD NOT BE FOUND in Switzerland? We wanted to use Monbretia but we can't get them in flower now, can we use Phlox or Lupins?? Please help! Many thanks, gareth.
PS please reply to my prsonal e-mail, thanks:

Why should anyone bother to answer your query if you can't even be
troubled to monitor the thread for responses?
