Re: Updated seed lists
Thanks Ian. Yes I was aware of that. Simon solved the problem for me. Basically the issue was that the email associated with my membership was an ancient plusnet one that doesn't meet current standards and many email programs/apps (including Mail on Apple devices) will not allow connection to it ...

Re: Updated seed lists
Sadly not for me. Can't see the Members area no matter which device or browser I use today. I suspect this may be because I have an email address change pending in my profile, so there is some glitch when trying to log in via the new email login system and there is a mismatch in addresses? Thanks ...

Re: Updated seed lists
The BCSS list was (partially) updated yesterday. I say partially as there are lots of new cactus seeds but I only spotted one new “other succulent”. I wonder if there’s another update with the succulents coming in the next few days. If so, anyone who orders before that update may be upset by the nee ...

Re: dioscorea elephantipes
Fabulous plants Tina. I was very happy to pick up one of your sylvatica youngsters at the Stoneleigh event. My elephantipes looks like it is taking a year off. Still solid, but no growth. I suspect it is either sulking after I repotted it, or our feeble summer has fooled it into thinking it isn't ...

Re: Crevice planted trough
Near vertical ideally. And if you run them east-west over a mound you can have a south slope and a north slope for things that like a little shade.

ID please?
I appreciate this is a challenge, but would value opinions as to which label belongs with this plant? Only one of three different cuttings rooted but a dropped tray meant the labels were no longer in proximity. So all three labels have been with the plant ever since.

Re: Portulaca eruca
Too early to tell with eruca. But as there are several plants in the pot it should be feasible to produce seed - if I get two flowers open together....ralphrmartin wrote: ↑Thu Sep 19, 2024 6:27 pm Are either of these Portulacas self-fertlie by any chance?
