Smethhurst Mystery Plant
« on: June 08, 2010, 09:30:41 AM »
Hi,  The Smethhursts generously gave me a pot full of Diascia integerrima a couple of years ago.  Since then this pot has spawned some new things, the purple flowered mystery plant has me stumped.  Does anyone know what it might be please?

Looks like Erinus alpinus from here, Chris!  (I presume you mean the pinky-purple plant that has filled the pot)?

Thanks Cliff.  That's just what it is.  I posted twice because the first one didn't seem to load.  Maybe Maggi will compact this down for us sometime?  Thanks Maggi, you are a star....
