Thanks for that although I think you're barking up the wrong ruscus as it were. I actually need the bendier shiner sister called danae racemosa which doesn't seem as common to get hold of even if it is easy to grow. What started off as a but of a curiousity has now become a bit of a challenge, to find and grow this 'rare' plant.
