Isn't this a beautiful plant! I found it at a specialist Nursery while buying a gift for someone - so I bought a gift for me as well.

Thanks - I loved it on sight! It's an Australian or New Zealand plant, so I shall ask Marguerite if she knows it.
Skippy, it is not VERY hardy, it likes a warmish place.
Angie, yes, it stays about this size.

You do right... it's good to treat yourself!
I always end up doing it too... I usually buy my own christmas and birthday presents and give them to Hubby to wrap... Of course I have to pretend to look surprised when I open them ;o)
