I only seen these at one store.... and they wouldn't sell them because it was a part of their display... and I was wondering if you had any extra seeds you could trade? I have some pink 'Salvia' seeds that I could trade you!?!? I absolutely LOVE this plant! They look fake because they are so perfect!

I bought those plants as little starts or plugs. They are very short lived and those are gone now. I didn't save any seeds.

Its funny Peggy, I haven't seen a single one for sale down here. They have cyclamen plants and they are usually sold together as Easter gift plants.

I love them, too, saw a whole greenhouse full in melborne, australia, and I'm always looking for true blue flowers. I found several websites (I know nothing about any of these companies) that sell mixed color seed packets 1-in the UK that sells seeds for mixed colors http://www.suttons-seeds.co.uk/ or stokes seeds http://www.stokeseeds.com/cgi-bin/StokesSeeds.storefront/en/product/816B?BV_SessionID=18c47ba92602ee555ddbab22c14bf4a9 a d 3) or http://www.outsidepride.com/store/catalog/Cineraria-p-16406.html
and http://seeds.thompson-morgan.com/us/en/product/2427/1 - hope this helps
