To bboy_mn: do you have the source for this?  Because I thought it 
was "Hogwarts" that was the name for a type of lily.  I've just 
spent over and hour looking for the quote (I thought it was the RAH 
event, but didn't find it in two, slightly different versions: 
mugglenet's and bloomsbury's).  I do seem to remember that the name, 
whatever it was, was something JKR said she *thought* she'd made up 
but then a friend said, "don't you remember, we saw them at ____ ?"
Can anyone dig up the source?

Annemehr
