As I mentioned to tophersmith, these can be found at Kartuz Greenhouses: Rare and Exotic Plants. Expect a plant about 8" tall with about a 1/4" stem and maybe two leaves. These do not enjoy high heat and humidity. Only one of 3 that I bought last year survived. It has been moved into the shade. So far so good, but it is growing slowly since it prefers full sun.

Well, Kartuz got our three Melianthus Major to SE TN in one week!!! Our 3 plants arrived yesterday and I went to pick mine up from ClevelandCathy's today. She kept one and I brought the other two home. I have potted one up and put one outside in the ground. Interested to see what it will do for me this year. I will keep a progress report throughout the summer. Wish me luck....
