    Went to a new garden centre today and was spoilt for choice. After choosing 3 plants we saw a toad lily which unfortunately we couldn't get at the time. Does any one know its Latin name as I can only remember its common one and my books don't have it in. It was a lovely tiny flower, purple with spots and the plant was about a foot tall.

    I am interested in seeds of the Tricyrtis hirta. For a seed exchange, I can offer quite unusual tropical seeds. I live in Jamaica.
