Re: Name of bulb with FN ?

You could ask Ingo Bruer at Eden plants as it is one of his numbers, presumably an accension number ?? Hi Phil, yes I will ask him, also because IB could mean I ngo B reuer, being it his plant :smile: Nerine flowers look notoriously similar to each other! On the size this could be N.filifolia maybe...

Re: Dioscorea oddity, Eve will like this

Hi Tina, indeed I like this :lol: and fortunately there is no explanation expected from me :wink: . I found a similar phenomenon on a Dioscorea sansibariensis, but only on part of the leaves and I am sure that next year they will be again as last year: green.

Re: Ant-plants: Arboreal Wonders of Nature.

Has anyone read the above book about ant-plants. I found it to be an absolute eye opener but perhaps these plants are better known that I thought... Hi Nom, sorry not to be helpful with the book, but recently a very interesting 24 page article by Attila Kapitany has been published in # 3 - 2010 of ...

Re: Cacti and succulents never offered for sale

...Are they difficult to take care of? I assume they need as much sun as possible. What type of compost did you give them, how often do you water them? ...I managed to kill 8 (!) baby-pachypodiums brevicaule, I think because of the overwatering... Sorry but those plants where not for me but for fri...

Re: Cacti and succulents never offered for sale

Specks sold Sarcocaulon peniculinum last year (I took the last 2 plants :mrgreen: ), hopefully he will have some also in 2011. The plants listed now in his catalogue are those he had on sale during this year. The rarer plants get sold out quickly, so one has to be lucky, be there at the right time o...
