Hi Richard, Thanks for the free seeds offer.
I saw pictures of mariana and obconica on a site but
unfortunatly did not bookmark it and cannot find it
now, dont you hate that. The pictures where so incredible
that I just have to find the seeds. Dont know of any
other name for them but can give you descriptions:
Purpurea X Mariana: Intense sky blue with tubular flowers, foliage
silver (like stachys lamb ears) large leafed and prominant.
Obocinca: Flowers purple on the outside covered in dense
silver/white hairs, inside flower all yellow veined with the
outside purple colour.
How about Digitalis ferruginea and Digitalis parviflora, any ideas
on where to source seed???
Postal address: Lara Hawkes, P O Box 14173, Enderley, Hamilton
New Zealand.
Thanks heaps Lara
