Wait for ordering until you see the seed lists being updated in the 'Updated seed lists thread'. Maybe the exception would be Mesa Garden, where now could be the right time (although they could have run out of species) as they might be less busy this time of the year than when the next list is relea...

You could write 'ex' in front of the locality data or original source, for your offspring of these plants.

I wonder how much seed you will get,

Expect one seed per seed pod. So it does not provide heavily on seeds. Assuming you were refering to the Ledebouria / Scilla.

I am sure the follicle of the Ceropegia will provide dozens of seeds each, as other stapeliads do.

Just four more weeks!

I have been given 100+ seeds of Melocactus smithii by the owner of the land the plants grow on. All I would like to have is a few plants. I've sown 10 seeds, if they germinate well I will have many seeds left. I do not want to waste them and am thinking of selling them on ebay. M. smithii is a CITE...

My partner has suggested leaving the shading up all year as the greenhouse is South facing (think it's easier for him not having to take it all down!) At first I said no it had to come down. Now thinking maybe leave it up. I always have my shading cloth up between early March and early October. Esp...

Small seedlings are less strict regarding water. I always give my one year old seedlings a good soaking once every week assuming the soil has dried out in between, no matter if it is warm or cold.

Older seedlings (depending a bit on their size) will have to get used to less frequent watering.

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I fear you have just answered your own question... I'm watering them about once every 8 - 10 days presently due to the intense heat. Lithops can last a long time without water. Golden rule with succulents and a diamond rule for ultrasucculents like Lithops: if you ...

The bottom right seems like it could be rooted still. How has the weather been in the last two months in the UK? Up here we have had 25+C temperatures for a few weeks now, continuesly 25C+. And no rain for at least six weeks maybe even longer by now. No rain at all. Luckily my casualties in the gree...

Looks to be a chore to plant them in there, though.
