Re: Interesting lophophora video

You'd probably need about a dozen plants to feel the effect of the drug! Who'd want to eat their collection? Hence growing plants as part of an "ornamental collection" does not run foul of the law in most countries. Only a person with "interest" in growing and drying or chemicall...

Re: Massonia

I have seeds of Massonia on offer, if you want to try them from seeds. Will have more species in April / May.

Re: Massonia

Plants in my greenhouse are packed together as closely as possible. However, I have a friend in Somerset who can resist the temptation of quantity and grows each single Massonia in its own pot and spreads the pots out so that the leaves don't touch.
