ID of garden escape
Can somebody offer an ID for what is evidently a garden escape growing
in Sydney, Australia? http://www.box.net/shared/static/wercueo00k.jpg Conspicuous are the whorls of linear leaves, distantly spaced along the stem. The flush of pink on the petals in the photo is real. |

The flush of pink on the petals in the photo is real. It looks like Linanthus grandiflorus, in the Polemoniaceae. Native to the SW USA, it likes dry conditions, and is often added to wildflower mixes. http://www.dkimages.com/discover/Hom...ts/Ornamental- Groups/Unassigned/Unassigned-038.html -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
