I am looking for a plant that has a flower like Dutchman's Breeches does not have the compound or fern leaf.

Looking for a plant that has a flower like Dutchman's or Dutchmen's Breeches but this one has white breeches and a bit of a red flower part coming out from the breeches part. The leave are not fern-like or compound. They are simple oval shaped leaves, thick and the plant is a very strong vine. I lost mine due to the deep freeze we had in California and want to buy some. Does anyone know what these are called and where I can buy them?

While your description is better than many on this site, I can't identify your plant based on what you have provided. There are all kinds of plant identification websites that make use of color photos. You might want to search for them by typing "plant identification" or "flower identification" in the Yahoo search box.





The quickest way to identify your flower will probably require a visit to a local plant nursery. They will be familiar with plants that are common in your area. I'm guessing they are busy identifying and selling replacements for all kinds of plants damaged in the California freeze.





Good luck with your gardening.
