Welcome Ghoerts I do not know about you wanting seed from us but we in the rest of the world would probably like seed from your native plants!

Warm welcome Ghoerts!
Yes, you are living just in the country that is so desirable to visit for most of us.
Hopefully, I'm looking forward to seeing some original habitat pictures. :cool:

Welcome, Ghoerts! Yes, we will all look forward to seeing pics from where you live, many of us grow lots of plants from S. Africa, and love to see habitat pics.

Hello :welc:
Do you grow succulent plants from SA? What sorts of seed are you looking for? Some seed (mesemb seed) travels well, to and from the UK, but other seed can be more difficult...
Ever hopeful, trying to grow plants from arid sunny climates in the UK!
Lithops, Haworthia, Adromischus, other south African succulents including Ceropegia and some Crassula.
