Litonia & Bomarea

Since you're in Australia, economically speaking you're going to want seeds from sources outside of Australia.

The Saunders in South Africa often offer seeds of Littonia modesta via their Silverhill Seeds nursery. I'm pretty sure some of the other South African seedspeople offer seeds of it from time to time. (I just checked the Silverhill Seeds website and they're currently offering seeds of it right now. Although they state that it is now called Gloriosa modesta.)

As for Bomarea seeds, people like Diana Chapman (Telos) sell plants of a number of species. But I don't think she ships internationally. (She's in the U.S.) Even if she did, I bet it would be almost impossible to get them into Australia alive. Places I've discovered that sell seeds of several species of Bomarea are rarepalmseeds.com in Germany (they've started offering *lots* of non-palm seeds lately) and taste.ecrater.com in the U.S.
