Think the seed was mislabelled

Post by daniel82 »

This is a 2 year old seedling, it came from the seedpool under the name Mediolobivia atrovirens. It was clear about a year ago that wasn't right however and just to prove the point it opened these the other day :wink:

Apologies for this. I don't keep old copies of the seed pool list, just update the same file, so can't check if I had E. viridiflorus seed at the same time and made a mistake, Well, its a nice plant anyway :grin:

No apology needed mate, I mean its free seed anyway and I've got some great plants out of the seedpool (tu)

These viridiflorus have particularly colourful spines as it happens.
