Re: Rare flower

That is lovely Jim. Do you think you'd be able to grow it? What am I saying? Of course you could! It will be interesting to get the botanical name so you might be able to search out particular propagation information.

Subject: [CHAT] Rare flower


A friend in India just sent this picture, which she described as a rare parrot flower from Thailand. I've asked her if she can find the botanical name. Next, I'll see if she can get seeds--but it's easier to get gold out of Fort Knox than get seeds out of Thailand. Sure is a beauty, though.
