My Maihuenia poeppigii is seed grown, so not the Ingwersen clone, but still very reluctant to flower. I sowed the seed in 1999 so it's a big plant now...

My original plant came from Chris Hynes, but I don't know if that was seed-grown or not. I have several that are all cuttings of it.

I'm sure a lot of people would be interested in a piece if you was to propagate it(divide it) :grin:

It did flower. Eventually! Nice scent as a bonus.
