I was recently sent a sample of the ressurection plant or rose of jericho (sp unknown but its asteraceae)
from a european retailer
i didnt know it was coming and quarantine took it
anyway since i almost had this mysterious plant im curious if it can be found here already and if so where
apparently theyre completely dry and flat and when soaked in water they come back to life within days
anyone know where they can be found? |

| Did a quick search on it. Seems that is illegal or highly questionable in Aus. No idea where it could be purchased here. Seems to be an ethnobotanical plant, could you tell me more? Jon |

| I am not conversant with your species however there are many species of resurrection plants found in arid lands all over the world. Aust has numerous species. A Google search will give much information. |
