Thank you! This is 'amazing' Luke, given the plants' location. Does anyone know what the seeds are like and how they'd be distributed please? We have a plant in our front yard but it's at least 800m from where these two were found. Thank you!

Sorry Rosie, but again makes more sense, I was contemplating that after my original suggestion, as it would probably be a bit of an odd spot for Gynatrix
