Took this pic at Butchart Gardens: I want one!! Would appreciate any help anyone can give me to identify it. Thanks!!

castor bean plant i believe

Yep, Castor Bean, that's what I would say tooooo..

*although, I've never seen one soooooo purple,
great color on it*

Ha! I knew I was asking the right people! THANKS VERY MUCH!

Castor Bean w/Pictures and Write Up!

Yep - that's a Red castor bean, as opposed to a Green castor bean plant.

I have seeds for both.

Julie you take some really nice photo's...
Very colorful...

*and I love lot's of color from this time of
year on thru winter.. we don't get much of it here *

That's a beautiful plant, but HIGHLY poisonous so I can't have any with my two little ones!
