There was this fantastic, beautiful specimen of an Aloe plicatilis which didn't even get placed, wonder who that belongs too;)

C.ampliata, wish I could grow this properly, I got ONE flower this year and my cuttings never take (unlike C.haygarthii which never fails!)

. The talk
> at the end by Paul Shirley was about these plants

Wish I could have been there! Seems there are a number of mesemb/Other Succulent autumn shows in the UK, beyond Branch or Zone level, not all run by the BCSS (??) A quick look on the Events Page ...

... I think I'll start a separate thread about these.

Thanks for the pics Vic couldn't make it unfortunately but recognise quite a few of the plants.
The Haworthias Bill are mostly from our Ex. Chairman/Zone Rep.
No. 1 on my list updated from your list (see below) is an ex ISI plant but can't remember the exact no.
No.3 is one of my favourites...........I'm still waiting for an offset
No. 4 was a feebie from my plant & one of the best clones of this Bob Kent hybrid, not sure about No.s 6 & 7 :-


1. H. nigra v. diversifolia fa. nana ISI....
2. H. limifolia var. ubombensis
3. H. mutica
4. H. 'Bevs Wonder' the clone known as 'Lover More'
5. H. springbokvlakensis
6. H. retusa x 2 ?
7. H. magnifica v. splendens (I think) top pic.
8. H. lockwoodii bottom pic.

Cheers Ian, you can tell I'm very knowledgable about succulents;)

Hi Phil

The 'Lover More's I have seen were not as white as that and less scabrous, perhaps it's just the light, not that I have seen many.

I am pretty certain I have a plant nearly identical to that mutica Phil. I'll have a look.
