I have no real plans for the grafts, but I may try to de-graft some of them. The whole thing was just an experiment and I wanted to have a look and take some pictures on the flowers. Now when it's done I just grow the ones on it's own root
Since I grow on my windowsill I do not have space for all experiments at the same time
Hi, I have seen somewhere on this forum or u tube, some preparation work on the seeds of Astro. caput- medusae. Can anyone refresh my memory, and is this work really required. I think it related to removing a part of the outer shell of the seed. Cheers.

I have never done any preparation on the seeds for this species. Just from the bag direct in the pot
They are growing at the speed of light there. Please report on the degrafting, Christer.
It has been itching in my fingertips to chop mine off its stock too.

I keep my fingers crossed, but I think it will fail
I don't know... they have a body that looks good on low and high stock to me... I tend to degraft almost anything sooner or later but I doubt I'll degraft this one. After I graft it successfully etc etc etc

Sometimes it's better to have it grafted then not at all
