Hi C-H's, I expect that I am indeed growing the plants that Dave Williams describes as: "from a diamond mine in Alexander Bay in Namaqualand, high up on the West Coast of South Africa where the Orange River meets the sea." Thanks. How nice to have a little seed history. Now I don't know what they are! I'll hoist a picture on my web site sometime.
