Chamaelaucium uncinatum
Or can be called Wax Flower. It has its origins in Western Australia, but now they come from the Dutch Flower market. Not sure if we can grow them in this country. Such a delightful little flower, - and when it has its leaves crushed smells just like Lemon Meringue Pie!
This Latin name is probably one of the few I have remembered since retiring from the floristry business, but brought into conversation can sound just marvellous.
A bit like supercallifragilisticexpialidotious. (or however you spell it.)
