FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy Flowers3 - POLYGALA (a guess)


4 - DIETES bicolor (fortnight lily)


12 - IMPERATA cylindrica %26#039;Rubra%26#039; (Japanese blood grass) - invasive





EDIT: Okay, it%26#039;s killing me that I can%26#039;t find some of the ones that I know! Argh. Why do names escape me?!?!





1 - possibly ARCTOTIS


2 - still can remember the name


5 - just can%26#039;t find this one...I would think it%26#039;s a Hibiscus and found similar ones but can%26#039;t find a species; this one is frustrating me


6 - I%26#039;m guessing an Allium, again I%26#039;ve looked and looked and can%26#039;t find the right one. There was another genus in the Alliaceae family that it could fit into but just can%26#039;t find the right one.


7 - haven%26#039;t got a clue on this one


8 - again, no clue


9 - don%26#039;t know-can you describe the flowers and stems (woody, soft...)


10 - can%26#039;t find the right fern


11 - no clue


13 - I%26#039;ve seen this one eons ago, do you recall the foliage?





Also if you get desperate, you can search the plant list of the botanical garden to see if you can find the plants: http://www.rbg.vic.gov.au/genealogy mormon
