I received a packet of seeds from Maja24 and I'm trying to figure out the common american name if there is one for one of the seed packets. I'm really bad at doing this. And I don't spell at all well either so this is going to be a puzzle I'm sure. At least for me.

Alonsoa Meridionalis

I keep comming up with butterflies and prehistoric elephants. Needless to say I know I've got it wrong. I just can't figure out what is right. Your help is really really appreciated.

Thankyou Terry,

How are you doing, have you put your orchard and gardens to bed for the year? What are you planning for next year? I'm just a load of questions aren't I? Thankyou for the common name of the flower.

That's a nice looking plant. Thankyou again Terry.

Hi Maja,

I never think to ask the person who sent them. I always just post it. I'm probably lazy when it comes to things like this.

The other day I couldn't even find the member directory lol.

And you should have seen what I did to the purple passion plant when I look it up. The post is around here somewhere.

lol@maja24

It might get interesting with those in the garden. At least you'd never have to worry about fertilizer lol.
