Herbin, I think a lot of folks use "Kiss-Me-Over-The-Garden-Gate" (P. orientale) and "Love-Lies-Bleeding" (A. caudatus) interchangeably, although they are two different plants.

But now I have another question for ya'll - I have a plant given to me by a dear friend. She told me it was KMOGG. But it has deep pink "pom-pon" balls of densely packed flowers on it. From the photos I've seen, they don't really look like either KMOGG or Love-Lies-Bleeding. The leaves are large oval shaped. The stem is thick and has ridges similar to 'Prince's Feather' Amaranthus so I'm leaning toward it being related to it.

Any guesses? I don't have a good photo, but I can post one in a week or so if need be.
