If there are any left over I will add what I can and offer to post to any one in uk. I have got fresh l.wlliams fruit so seeds soon. Also have gymnocalycium vatteri and damsii, Stenocactus zacatecasensis and longispinus all about to flower. Epithelantha micromeris have flowered so will have seeds there too. Also have l.diffusa seedlings and rebutia fiebrigii which will need to beef up but will be free to good homes in the future. So any uk members keep an eye out I will post something when I got enough to send on.

[Eutow_Intermedium]

I would have sent you a message sooner Ade , but unfortunately the site went down. I sent your package on several ago , you should be getting it any time soon I would guess.

Just let me know when it arrives or post up a pic.

So far my Epithelantha Micromeris isn't doing much at all , no signs of flowers yet. If you send some Rebutia Fiebrigii , i'll send you some Rebutia Buiningiana if you don't have that particular one.

Hendry Terok only just sent me some Lophophora Diffusa seed, I just sowed them and am going to give that one a go. I have fully given up with L. Williamsii out of personal choice.

We will have to see what other plants of yours flower and if they produce seed. I can't say Stenocactus are self pollinating personally , but who very knows.

[adetheproducer]

Well even if the Stenocactus dont self pollinate I might get hybrids with any luck. If you confident enough for diffusa then williams is just the same but less water. My plants turn seed over quite quickly so dont worry if you kill a batch you can get more a stamp dont cost much. I cant keep them my wife will go nuts if I get more lophs I even got two in work. The rebutia are still small about 1 cm tall and 2 mm wide but starting to fatten up and get furry heads once they big enought to go a couple of days with out water I'll post em.

[adetheproducer]

Package arived, my wife told me the jiffy bag came today so will have a good nose through when I get home from work. Cheers Eutow_Intermedium, I will update with pictures once I have had a look.

Ah thats good. Didn't take too long then.

Tis Ok

[adetheproducer]

All is good, the gymnocalycium Denudatum had escaped into the jiffy bag but managed to rescue them all. There is plenty of melos left from you and Hendry Terok also only used about half of the gymnos too. I will take some of the adenium and dorstenia but will leave some for any one else. I will wait until my loph seeds are ready also probably the Epithelantha, maybe my gymnos and Stenocactus if they make the fruit quickly. Add them to the collection and send on to the next victim.

[Eutow_Intermedium]

Ha ha =^o^= The jans suba's busted out and made a bid for freedom

Super chuffed you got them safely, and that you have them already sown.

I have found the Hendy Terok melo to be an excellent germinator. The G. Ritterianum are good to. Fresh little green blobs, and the G Denudtum j s can be of all colours. I'm hoping the Melo Amoenus will work well for you as well. I'm optimistic they will still germinate for you.

Im picking up some more supplies today, I ran out of granit gravel and grit so could only do the two tubs for the melos and gymnos. So the adenium and dorstenias will get sown later this evening, any tips for germinating these trees would be very much appriciated. The Melo seeds all looked good, non squished or anything so I think they will be ok.

[adetheproducer]

Its all going good, I have had 3/5 adenium germinate, about 20% of hendry_Terok's melos, and about 20% each of Eutow_Intermedium's gymnos both species germnate so far. The dorstenia and Eutow's melos are still waiting for the right moment so its all good in the hood so far.

[Eutow_Intermedium]

=^-^=

It's good to know you re having some positive results.



I do hope the M. Amoenus come up very soon.

Good luck with the Gymno's , and those HT Melo's should start popping up like mushrooms literally . I don't have any additional fancies. Just in a propagator on a wide window sill on the south, for all my extended family.

[adetheproducer]

The gymnos are coming out like pop corn now loads of little green blobs the mellows are coming on quick some are a mm wide already. Got 4/5adenium now one has got 2 leaves now too.

=^O^= Pow ! !

I told you the Gymno's should be pretty good in the germination dept.

The HT Melo's were crazy fresh, popping up all over the shop.

.

Any news about the M. Amoenus ?

I planted three Adenium Obesum seeds , still yet to show , and I planted mine before you : / ?

I have more to sow anyway.

[adetheproducer]

Nothing from the m.Amoenus yet, they in the same pot as ht's but Im not worried they can take ages. I had a turbinicarpus lophophoroides pop open the other day that where sown about a month or so ago. The others in the pot got hair now they grew so quick. So no stress they come out when they ready. The rebutia seedlings are coming on nicely but deffinately a while of sending will let you know whem ready. The seed bank is growing now l.williamsii seed a day or two from ready, e.micromeris still flowering so should be seversl fuit there soon too.
