For about about one and one half years I've had several articles on my website about the "Rare Thailand Parrot Flower", Impatiens psittacina. I still receive mail telling me this is nothing more than a computer generated hoax and I should be ashamed of myself for promoting this "fraud". Well, READ THIS: http://www.rhs.org.uk/NR/rdonlyres/F.../impatiens.pdf
here is the link from the RHS soc it is in the september issue of the Plantsman http://www.rhs.org.uk/Learning/Publications/plantsman/0907/plantsmansep2007.htm
Don't know why, but I can't make the link copy correctly. The article is in the Royal Horticultural Society on-line magazine. I was able to take the link you gave Pierrot and scroll down to the impatiens article and then see it. thanks for the assist!
Just thought some of you might want to know I've been asked to do a follow up on the Garden Rebel radio show this morning during the 11:00AM eastern time hour. The subject is the Rare Thailand Parrot Flower, Impatiens psittacina. You can listen live at this link: http://www.radioamerica.org/ Just click the audio button at the top for the live show beginning at 11:00AM eastern US time. For those of you in the Central zone, that will be 10:00AM. And for those in the western zone, 8:00AM. In Australia, you'll just have to figure it out!! Steve
