Hello again thanks for the help so far have had another talk with my mum and she says she bought it from a garden centre in cyprus and the name she was given for it was pakisatnie night. there is a bit of an argumant going on as mum says it was like a fern and the leaves where what opened at night, which is where the scent came from dad is insisting it was fern like but had flowers. she really wants to find out its proper name so she can buy one. it has a very intense perfume scent. i hope this information helps a bit more thank you to evryone whos come up with suggestions so far.

Ima, I'm much closer to Westlake than Donna and Velleen. She might have lost power for a short time, but I doubt it was for very long. I'm about 20-25 minutes west of her. She gets more lake effect snow than I do, but that's mostly what we both got. We had about 6" here with about 3-4 inches of ice/snowy ice. Roads were terrible this morning, but good this afternoon. When I took DS to his interview this morning for 10:00 the 4 lanes were plowed about a lane and an half, parking lots were better with the private plows, and side streets hadn't been touched. I got stuck on his girl friend's street 4 times! twice each way. The last 2 times, DS, the neighbor and the mail man were all pushing. I drive a SUV, but it's not 4wheel drive. Her street had been plowed by this afternoon sometime. The ice on the trees sparkles like diamonds in the sun. It's beautiful! Tami

Happy Birthday Donna!!!! I hope that you have a wonderful day/weekend. Patti

I'm so sorry for your loss Cynic...it's obvious you truly thought the world of him and for that I'm sure he was greatful...real true friends come along so few in our lifetime especially an added gift of being a relative and it means so much to hold on to those...may your grief be short and your memories long...
