Nice offer and I lost my plant when I moved. I would like to get a replacement, but will I think I will be putting off the next seed-sowing attempt a little longer yet.

Great pic - congrats on the win!

Thanks, Daiv. I remember you had said your Lepismium didn't survive the move from CA. Just let me know when you'll be ready for a few fruits or plain seeds and we can work out the details. Would you want some of the entire fruit sent or would you like the seeds dried out?

I think dry seed would be easiest to send. I sent some seed out in envelopes and it got crushed. So I then cut a small piece of cardboard. Taped one end, put the seed down the end of the card board and then taped the other end. That worked pretty well to keep them from getting crushed in the mail.
