    Okay, pete, you said wait till today ...

    Ludisia disolor "Dawsoniana" .... an orchid, the Jewel Orchid ...

    http://www.speciesorchids.com/ludisiaDiscolor.html

    If I think of it (because it's grocery shopping day tomorrow and have to get ready for our mini holiday) I'll photograph mine.

    As no one guessed, does this mean I have to go with M or will someone else? Please ... [​IMG]

    Here's my Ludisia discolor which even has two new shoots coming on it

    [​IMG]

    Okay, easy peasy this time ...

    I am a hardy annual M ...

    I am small, only about 8 inches tall.
    I have long grey-green leaves.
    I have scented flowers in many colours and I can be single or multi-coloured.
    I like a semi-shaded position and can grow in cracks in pavements.

    What am I ????? [​IMG]
