Normally US would take a week from Europe. I don't know if Hawaii takes a bit longer. Trinidad took two weeks when I send something. But that was a few years ago, with more airplanes flying around. I can imagine Hawaii has less planes at the moment.

Cactus Hobby Brno has updated its seedlist. See: www.cactus-hobby.eu

Mammillaria bertholdii are getting offered more abundantly, I see. You still have to pay well for them, though.

Gymnos.de (www.gymnos.de / http://www.richtstatt.de/gymnos_v3/cat.php?l=en) has been updated.
If you are into Gymnocalyciums (and some other South American species), this is an interesting stop for you to order some seeds!

Aiko which of the Czech growers are your favorite to order from ? I see so much common items between lists, which have been the most reliable?

ADBLPS just updated a few hours ago. They're a French source that I've bought from for years. Really good selection and price for seeds, highly recommend.

Link (English version): http://www.adblps-graines-cactus.com/commander_EN.html

Missing some species that commonly sell out fast (such as Pelecyphora aselliformis,) but lots of new stuff too.

Maybe I'll finally get some Yavia seeds this year

Does ADBLPS usually send order confirmation after payment?
I paid on Nov 16 (via a bank transfer) and emailed back asking whether my payment was received. I haven't gotten a reply since then (it's been over a week)...I understand that they're probably very busy with orders, but they usually reply to emails within a couple days, so I'm concerned if the silence is because they didn't receive my payment...
Should I only be expecting a reply once the order is processed and in the mail?

I see that Chiltern Seeds have got 157 new offerings in their "New for 2021".

Nothing to tempt me due to shortage of space and over-specialisation but I noticed Aloe arborescens for £3.25. Some of the other unusual new things may be of interest.

They usually put some more on in a few days or weeks.

Or take the short cut to: https://succulenta.nl/zaadlijst/

The list is open to anyone, but members of Succulenta will get the first chance of ordering (and they get a discount). So if you are not a member, it might be hard to get your hands on some of the choice species on the list. Mesembs enthousiasts might like to see Muiria, Dactylopsis and Phyllobolus being offered as you don't see those often on a list anywhere (but maybe on the MSG seed lists).

Hi all, what's the general feedback on germination rate and quality of seeds from ADBLPS?

I recently ordered many seeds from them. Very funnily, my first order went to Indonesia instead of coming to India due to a goof up by French post office. Luckily Indonesia custom department decided to head it back to India.
Tropical weather, no winters! :roll:
