Re: Chamaecereus hybrids
I believe leopygmaea is a named hybrid. One which I'm looking for myself.

Re: Chamaecereus hybrids
It is Mediolobivia leopygmaea, Ralph - must be a hybrid not a species.

Re: Chamaecereus hybrids
There is a grafted one on eBay right now, if you have a spare £12 plus.....(postage included)
I agree, it looks a lovely hybrid so it would be great if a uk seller started selling pups.......

Re: Chamaecereus hybrids
Thanks. I believe there's some rule that says cultivar names should not look like latin species names, and should be in a modern language. So whoever named it originally has boo-booed.
See http://www.fao.org/forestry/45000-0e85e ... 683664.pdf for a fairly simple discussion.
Anyway, notwithstanding that, its one of the better hybrids, I have to say.
