Re: Plant ID?

Of interest on this one--they did not even provide a "recognized" common name! To me. that smacks of real huckstering.

Why in the world can't they provide botanical naemes?  Well, I'll
hazard a guess before reading the other responses.  Looks like a

The "Japanese Wonderflower" being sold at the shows looks to be
Mirabilis jalapa/4 o'clock/Miracle of Peru.

I can't place the "Flowering Fern," though I've been wracking my
