I finallyyyyyyyyyyyy found it.
I was searchin' allllllll over for this one..
It was so firmilar, but for the life of me,
I just couldn't place it..

Finally found it on the web, only one picture referenced to it, without a name..
I emailed the place that had it,
and after severrrrrral tries, they found their resident expert and sent me the info...

It's a WAXFLOWER!!

And here's the place that helped me find the
correct answer..
Proflowers
(if you look at their March Birthday thingie,
is the exact flower you're posting in there.) wink

Thanks Again for all of your help there..
They were really nice and quite quick with their responses' to me about this... thumbup flw

Your garden and greenhouse and potting bench are fantastic! Was just checking out your pictures. I want your setup! laugh

Is that your little Yorkie there in the one picture? Cute! flw

The waxflower isn't tooooooo readily available..
As far as I know about them, they are almost
all for florists..

If you find a souce of seeds or plants,
let us know~~
Would love to hear where you can get them!

Glad you liked the pics. I just purchased that greenhouse last year and love it- only wish it was bigger! smile Yes, that is my little handsome Ransom- he hasn't learned to be a good garden dog yet! He likes to take off with my gloves, shears, or whatever else I am using at the time. He also likes to walk through my coldframe! Little ****!
