    Hi daz and debs, glad to hear that not all of your pretty garden was washed away and hope that everything is getting back to normal by now.

    As to your question - I googled Calohortus and came up with this -

    http://www.blue-room.com/plant_album/pages/page_65.html

    - but I don't think this is it.

    If you put "black dragon plant" in the google search box you get quite a few different things like Coleus, Wisteria, and some evergreen tree. So best you google them and see which is the one you are after.

    Evening D and D, I`ve never heard of a plant called Calohortus but there is one called Calochortus which is a member of the lilly family, David.
