Trillium is what I first thunked, but the flowers on them point up no down.

Ok here's a clue:
Found in the Oregon and Northern California, often in mountainous areas, this is a very particular plant which is usually grown by an enthusiast in the UK.

Sorry no - it's not a trillium or an orchid. I think Dutchy was pretty close when she mentioned pitcher plants  Do you want me to tell you? |

You'll have to tell me, Plocket I haven't a clue  |

Post by Dutchy on Sept 29, 2007 15:52:43 GMT
Is it a flower of a fly eating plant species then?

I don't know of anyone who has one but I might be tempted one of these days!!! I'm struggling to give more clues Dutchy - I think I should give it to you because you were the closest  |

Hey but it was the flower of a pitcher plant. Wow, I am so chuffed about myself. Can't guess a simple kitchen herb but these monsters I do get. Should I be worried now  |
