Hmmm... unfortunately I threw it away. That's a shame, as it sounds quite pretty. If any more of them crop up, I might actually pot them and cultivate them to see what happens. Noooooo..... you will be inundated!!

lesley they are endemic to the canary Islands and not vey hardy. mind you I never saw any when I was in Gran Canaria. They can stand outdoors most of the time but won't take kindly to frost so better indoors. very easy to propogate.

Sorry erani , I'm not sure what it is but it's pretty! The flowers look a bit like helichrysum everlasting flowers but not the leaves. Hope someone will know what it is for you.

Not sure erani but they look a bit like hypericum berries (St. John's Wort) which can vary in colour from pink to red & black. If you're looking at growing them for your wedding bouquet it would probably be too late to grow from seed but you could get a small plant, it would depend on what time of year the plants produce berries as well where you live.
