Got one!

its lovely.... i can see why you wanted one.........

beautiful ang,, whats it called? please

Dodecatheon meadia AKA Shooting Star. and thanks btw

thanx ang,, have to write that down,, i never remember all these names lol

What a name for such a pretty plant, glad you found one.

Ebay ladies...that's where i got this one...they are quite reasonably priced too.

Well done - I love mine! Must try to remember to get a white version...

ooohhh is there a white one too?...now you gone and one it........lol

Yes, there is - so if you spot them on Ebay, please let me know ASAP!!!

will do Spritz...in fact i'll have a quick look for ya now, i'll PM you if i find any.

indeed they are lovely; I like them too.

I bet that its your pride and joy, unusual and pretty too.

Oh, Angie - I didn't warn you that they disapppear under the ground in summer - so mark where they are!!!

you did tell me Spritz, i will indeed, i lost this really unusual bell flower that i had last year because of it disappearing and forgetting to mark it - won't be making that mistake again!

This looks very simular to a passion flower I have that has just flowered if you are interested its called Lavender Lady its leaves go backwards like this before opening out a bit darker colour though. Is this a bulb?

passion flower? i assume you mean colour? no they are not bulbs, they are perennial plants, i had to get one after seeing all the lovely pic's of them on here... i think they look more like cyclamen, to be honest Morgana.

No not just colour the way the leaves go backwards I will upload a picture next week I hope as I cannot use much on this its temp till I get reconnected.

oohhhh will look forward to that, never seen a reflexed one before...sounds lovely.

Mine are disappearing fast, Angie! Must remember to get the plant labels in...

will do, thanks for the reminder..have you ever grown them from seed... i have loads of seeds and acording to my books should be easy.... but then they have never seen my efforts of seed sowing... lol

No -that's because I don't really want any more, only a white one! :-)

oh ok then... lol do they self seed then?

Been bought one as a prezzy by my youngest son who was showing his old mini at Newby Hall. They also had a plant fair there. Whereabouts can you plant them, and do they spread? Thanks.
