Can anyone tell me what this plant is? It came in a V-day bouquet and I just loved it- very long vase life [clappy] . I hope I'm posting the pics right, never done it [Smile] . Thanks.

I finallyyyyyyyyyyyy found it.
I was searchin' allllllll over for this one..
It was so firmilar, but for the life of me,
I just couldn't place it..

Finally found it on the web, only one picture referenced to it, without a name..
I emailed the place that had it,
and after severrrrrral tries, they found their resident expert and sent me the info...

It's a WAXFLOWER!!

And here's the place that helped me find the
correct answer..
Proflowers
(if you look at their March Birthday thingie,
is the exact flower you're posting in there.) [Wink]

Thanks Again for all of your help there..
They were really nice and quite quick with their responses' to me about this... [thumb] [flower]

Your garden and greenhouse and potting bench are fantastic! Was just checking out your pictures. I want your setup! [Big Grin]

Is that your little Yorkie there in the one picture? Cute! [flower]

The waxflower isn't tooooooo readily available..
As far as I know about them, they are almost
all for florists..

If you find a souce of seeds or plants,
let us know~~
Would love to hear where you can get them!

Glad you liked the pics. I just purchased that greenhouse last year and love it- only wish it was bigger! [Smile] Yes, that is my little handsome Ransom- he hasn't learned to be a good garden dog yet! He likes to take off with my gloves, shears, or whatever else I am using at the time. He also likes to walk through my coldframe! Little ****!
